One example- I think it was you the other day who brought up John Miller's pass blocking grades being below Redmond's last year as a reason why he wasn't a good signing. I'd imagine his grades are skewed due to blocking for Josh Allen.
I listened to the Bengals Booth Podcast yesterday and Dave Lapham brought up what I think is a good point. Both Pittsburgh and Baltimore have lost some very good players in free agency/trades. This offseason, we haven't gone backwards at any positions (ie- losing a Whitworth, Marvin Jones, etc). This free agency, we've either improved the position (Miller, CB depth) or stayed the same (Hart, TE). Almost by default, we should see an improvement to the team.
So by keeping a 6-10 team the same...we get better because Pittsburgh and Baltimore got worse? Great master plan Bengals! Maybe this will lead to a Super Bowl if all the good teams get worse!
You know, the Browns are in our division too and they traded for OBJ and Vernon.
