Zak Taylor was handed Marvin Lewis's aging unit so he'll want to continue bringing in "his guys" in free agency. But of course Mike Brown will be the guy frustrating those plans. The team was let down at QB, OL, LB and WR this season. To name what I can see, of course the coaches see it differently. So by rights they should be extremely busy in FA. What will Mike Brown and family be busy doing?
We have cut veterans before cut down day that would have potentially had some value in order to let them go find good spots to try and make rosters. Dalton honestly may not have value next year based on how the QB market is shaping up right now. We will shop him but I stand by what I said, if we don't find value we will release him. The reality is we aren't going to carry a 17 million dollar back up into the season plus with a young head coach you don't want the angry veteran sitting behind the 1st overall pick causing issues not that it would but it can create some bad optics.
