Waiting for Superman

Ultimately fail us. Now this isn't a pro Dalton or let's not draft a QB early thread because I think it is time to move on from him.( I think it will be beneficial for both parties)
Also I don't think the Bengals approach is all that terrible in acquiring talent but it does need some tinkering ( like actually signing a top free agent once in a while).
If this team is going to be yearly championship contender it's going to be able to be brave and take more risks.
Here are some things I would suggest that could make us a contender next season.
1.) Decide wether your major free agents are apart of your future plans or not. I am looking at Billings, Green, and Hopkins. If they are then sign them before the off season starts if not then trade them at the deadline.
2.) Trim the fat; cut Glenn, Hart, P.Brown, Kirkpatrick, S.Willams, B Webb, and trade Dalton( should get you a 4th or 3rd Rd pick)
3.) Sign two starters in free agency hopefully at LB & RT. Two guys I am looking at it Brian Bulaga RT from Green Bay & Cory Littleton from the Rams.
4.) Sign some locker room guys in free agency.
5.) Trade back for multiple picks in the draft especially if we have a top 3 pick.
I am a big fan of Littleon.  

I think if the Bengals somehow can come away from the draft with Thomas (OT), Simmons (LB) and Burrow (QB) and get some blue chip FA at OT and another backer, then things would improve.  They could put Thomas at LT, J. Williams at LG.  Hopkins at Center, Miller or someone in the draft at RG and FA RT.  Simmons, Littleton, and Pratt would be solid backers.  This team could be different.  I know drafting is a risk and there are more misses than hits hence, reason for many picks, but I seriously hope the Bengals get quality instead of quantity in the upcoming draft.  

BTW, since you mentioned Simmons in another thread, I watched his games, and he is the real deal.  The guy has long arms and moves like a safety...
