One of the JN regulars did a "mini study" on a few cases where the Bengals allowed quality players to head down the road, over a few dollars (figuratively). What he found was that the team typically spends more trying to replace a good talent, with multiple lesser talented players that still can't get the job done.
I can't quite remember who it was, or even which thread (there are so many), but hopefully they will see this post and take the lead on the penny pinching argument.
Probably replacing Houshmazilla with a list of FA failures they use to support their argument at signing free agents=self fulfilling prophecy.
I know they spent more on Coles, Bryant, and TO than they would have spent on TJ. Plus they lost their franchise QB after the TOchocinco circus.
