They have 36 players under contract next year.

Spending 198M this year on a 208 M Cap

Teams are going to struggle mightily getting under the cap

This is good for teams like the Bengals because there should be less competition for prime FAs

Teams may have to cut mid-high priced players to get under the new number


Prime Cut Candidates:

Dunlap
Gio
Uzomah
Hart

Those alone free up 25M
AJ Green saves another 18

198-43 = Get Bengals to 155

I’d cut all 5 names listed here. ANY TE with any skill will look good with Burrow. AJ is washed. I’m confident we can find another Gio in the draft, and Dunlap is still up in the air to me. His price will likely be 7 mill per and idk if that’s smart to pay at his age. Hart as we all know is likely gone. He’d have to finish strong not to be cut
