Players are getting dumped due to cap constraints already and it will only increase as we get close to March 17.

I hope our Bengals use their money wisely. I hope they cut some players who do not have a lot of dead cap money:

Geno - loved him but overpaid so needs to restructure or get cut
Gio - Overpaid based on projected 2021 RB salaries for back ups, heck he made more than our starting OG's in 2020 which makes no sense
Finney
Some say Hart, I say he is paid like a good backup RT so make him one by bringing in someone better in FA or draft.

There are more we can cut to go after OT's, centers, or guards in FA.

Time to be smart and build the team with good football players who only were cut for cap reasons and take advantage of teams who did a poor job managing the 2021 and 2022 cap.

Shouldn't Uzomah be added to the list?
He currently is the 11th highest-paid TE based on APY, and is coming off an Achilles injury.
Moving on from him would free up $5.3 mill in cap.

I don't have faith he'll be a 600+ yard guy, which is the threshold for top 12 receiving yards by TEs in 2020.
You willing to spend that much based on what you saw for 2 games of 2020?
