Okay, so maybe if we cut Geathers a year earlier, we'd have only been the 31st in dead money instead of 32nd
I give the Bengals FO credit when it's due such as their recent drafts.
Regarding this dead money issue I don't give them much credit at all for the reasons I've already mentioned.
1. They don't spend money on Free Agents.
2. They are probably the least likely team to cut ties with players that are under contract.
These are the 2 biggest reasons that go into their dead money rankings. If you are excited about this or think this is some great FA maneuvering by Mike Brown then by all means celebrate. I for one am not sold.
