Ironically to a player the Bengals tried to move up to draft.

You may remember that the Bengals tried to trade up to take an O-lineman at the top of the 2nd round in 2019 but teams were asking too much.

It's highly likely that the Bengals were targeting Cody Ford, who had met with the Bengals prior to the draft and exactly matches what Jim Turner looks for.

Instead the Bills traded up two spots (it cost them only a 5th) to 38 to grab him. The Bengals were back at 42 as a result of having won an end of season game that didn't matter.

From what I gathered the Bills just extended him last off-season and was thrilled.  Lots of confusion about the release. This may of been a case like Dunlap was for us a disgruntled Vet with odds with the coaches.  Also rumors he came into the Bills camp out of shape.. and lastly a mysterious foot injury before the Titans game likely not a real injury.

A disgruntled Bills O-lineman -what could go wrong?
