There are many reasons but I will put perception of ownership and lack of winning (playoff game/Super Bowls)...This does not mean that the team is going to move to Saint Louis and does not care about the city.....They have never hid what they do....Build through the draft and fill holes with lower tier FAs.....Nothing is going to change...They are not going to go out on day one and overpay (even higher than the market0 to get FAs to come here....Thinking anything other than that is just wishful thinking...They are going to overpay Billings, Vigil and Eifert and just roll along like they do because they have to spend the money according to the CBA.
I see the same thing every year on these boards since 2005....Nothing is going to change!!! I am the one that started the thread asking for Bob Castellini to buy the Bengals...At least he is trying to do something with the Reds, even if he did overpay for most of those signings.
Go to the FA section and look at all of the posts, everyone dreaming about picking up player A or player B. those players are all gone now and at high prices.
My guess is that they did reach out to a few of these players and were just told "No thank you!!"
