I’m all for moving on, and not dragging up the past, but if we’re going to discuss it let’s not make things up to excuse the team on how terribly it was handled.

It wasn't handled terribly, it just did not work out. Those two are not the same thing. The Bengals offered Whit, an aging lineman, a 1 year deal. He left for a 3 year deal and the Bengals rolled with a younger player. In fact, they drafted 2 just to be sure. Same thing the Pats do over and over again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
