Seems the draft might be offense heavy given all the attention to defense in free agency so far.
Safety Vonn Bell Signed

This free agency has been impressive. I'm no Bengals free agency historian by any means but this has been the most effort by the Bengals put in to it that I can recall.

Well, except they quarantined him giving ZT POA and told Mike there was no contact, even by phone, to the outside world for the next 14-21 days.

Excellent, best safety on the market. Should be able to replace Williams.

This is perfect...it gives the stud future safety like Dugger or Chinn time to develop and cut their teeth (and someone's head off) on special teams. I STILL see it as: Trade back in the 2nd... Get the WR (I LOVE Claypool) in middle 2nd Get the Speedy LB(Akeem Davis-Gaither) and the ballhawking developmental safety(Dugger/Chinn) in the 3rd. Get the beastly LG (Damien Lewis, LSU) in the top of Rd 4 and suddenly, the massive holes on the roster look pretty solid. AND you have insurance on Green and Williams not being back next year....although I would not call Williams a big loss and think Fej should have stolen his job.

His coverage is average but it’s a huge upgrade and means Shawn Williams will be our nickel LB. we’re building to stop the run clearly so hopefully we can shut down Lamar and co. I now want us to either go edge or WR at 33 unless of course Queen or Murray falls Absolutely...the only way I am not trading back and getting the WR in Rd 2 and the SS and LB in Rd 3 is if Queen or Murray is there. No one else. I also love Tanner Muse in the later rounds as a hybrid LB. Dude has size and speed to be a damn good nickel LB.

This is awesome. Fantastic signing.

Okay, so just how far over the cap are we now?
On another front, people on ESPN openly weeping over the threat of losing the Bengals as low hanging fruit.

Wow!
I don’t miss Fej anymore.

THis is going to be a total different team but when you draft #1, it's the right thing to do.
You can only be bothered by your own thoughts. You can only be p*ssed about your own life.
03-25-2020, 04:01 PM
Alright, alright, alright! This may be my favorite signing yet.
Good job, Bengals!
03-25-2020, 04:03 PM
Cowhead and other media Bengal haters also weeping because suddenly the Bengals are a much better place for Burrow and we won't have to trade him to Miami.
We really have to give credit to Mike Brown and his team for totally changing their way of doing business. I never thought we would see a free agency period like this This stuff should go a long way to repair the relationship with fan base and convince Burrow that he is coming to a team that wants to win.

LFG!! Great pickup!
For the love, PLEASE let these free agency pick ups pan out or the Bengals will never be aggressive free agency players again.
