There could be some truth to that, but they were SO bad, I just wonder how much could be attributed to that.
I was certain they would bring in another FA after the dust settled, but I would have thought they would have done it already to get them up to speed.
Are there any FA gurus out there that know if there is a rule about not having to guarantee a contract or something for a veteran signed after a certain date? I think I remember hearing some reason like that in the past?
So bad that even an over-the-hill past his prime LBer would still be better.
It's so funny how we complain on those kind of signings in the past but our LBers like Nickerson(who was a starter might I add)would now make those seem legit.
The Bengals might not be the most ideal team for a FA, but if they're wanting to start, it would have been an enticing situation.
