PLayers are always going to be upset and complaining and wanting to leave town...it's a job and it's a business. Ideally, you are the type of business that players will feel punished if they are fired, not rewarded.
Agreed. Instead of being worried about rewarding Dunlap by cutting or trading him how about we stop punishing the rest of the team? Novel idea here, but maybe Mike Brown's zeal for "not rewarding" complainers hasn't exactly helped the organization.
As far as these two idea casually tossed together go, the Bengals have huge financial implications if they are cut as opposed to traded. Right now, I am surprised there has not been a suspension for conduct detrimental for Dunlap. I have no idea what is going on with Geno, or why he is not motivated but I know he has produced zero pressures this season so it is likely time to move on. I hope the Bengals get something for them and Ross. I am on the fence with Green, but I seriously doubt he would ever sign for something in the lower $7 million range which is about what I would be willing to pay him right now.
