I also remember fans GUARNTEEING that Mike Brown would NEVER EVER use a first round pick on a TE or OG.
I don't expect the Bengals to sign the very top rated free agents, but they have shown a willingness to sign decent quality starters instead of dumpster diving when they bring in a new QB. When we drafted Palmer Brown solid rated players like Bobbie Williams, Tory James, Reggie Kelly, Nate Webster, and John Thornton. When we drafted Dalton we rebuilt the defense by signing three new starters in free agency (Nate Clements, Thomas Howard, Manny Lawson).
Not saying they will do that this year, but I sure don't see the point in playing make believe just to have something to whine about.
Lots were saying we would never Draft a Center early too.
I know it hasn't panned out but we did with Price.
