Going to be a tough sell to get guys like that now.  The Bengals are a bad football team based on the last two years.  Nobody's coming here to win a title.  They're going to have to pay at last market to acquire outside talent at this point.

True...  but a nicely formed contract could attract desirable FAs.

Bengals in reality do need to put forth more effort and take more chances than most others in Free Agency.
