Carson

Bobbie Williams
Whitworth
Leon Hall
Dunlap
Atkins
Boling

Kirkpatrick
And many more.
Meanwhile every year there is a long list of top rated free agents that other NFL teams refuse to pay. If the Bengals are the only team that does not re-sign all of their star players then where do all these free agents come from?
Last off season we added the 8th highest paid OT and a LB that was paid in the top half of the league for his position. I look for us to continue to spend money for talent either from our roster or others.
Funny how you bring up Whitworth. Mistake?
The amount paid on a position is not what is important, but rather the what are you getting for that money. There is smart use of money and not smart use of money.
Look for more of this in the next couple of years!!!
