Wonder if Golliday's visiting in person has anything to do with him coming off an injury and wanting to show the teams he is healthy?
Pretty sure he is not working out for teams, but they might have some sort of quick medical exam.

Yeah, it's been reported that the Giants want to check his hip out thoroughly.

But I must add, if Burrow is pushing for Golladay and we made a good offer I think he is a Bengal.
Sign Reiff, Donald Kelly and this has been a great Free Agency IMO.

And, they just happen to have an MRI on site.....

Totally Nate. If they get Kelly and Reiff that would be a very good effort in addition to the defensive maintenance (actually slightly more than that, in adding Ogunjobi).
Add KG, and it totally opens up the draft. Get another developmental WR or Chase, get Sewell or a an IOL in the 2nd round or later, or Pitts. Can get pretty much any position but QB and keep going bpa every round.

This.
Maybe he thinks the Bengals are easy pickings because both Antonio Bryant and AJ Green really cashed in when they were far from 100%.
I think it could be a nice signing, but the hip will need to be cleared.
What could go wrong?

Agree with everything you said MasterP. If Kelly can play Guard he could be a major upgrade for us and he can fill in at RT in a
pinch in case Reiff goes down. I like the LO addition to the DT position, was wanting Rankins but hey, this guy is a good player
when he tries to be. Golladay is a big play Receiver who like you said would help open the Draft so we aren't reaching for a WR
early. Even though I like a lot of these WR's in this Draft.
What is nice is we took care of Corner in FA, now we just need to take care of the OL to really free up the Draft. We got a pass
rusher in Hendrickson and a decent pass rushing DT in Ogunjobi. We aren't as bad off as some make out. Especially if we make
the moves we are talking about. We could be sitting nicely.

Don't want to hear about this down the road if this is the case.
Our medical staff better check him out and not overlook anything.
That Bryant move was a big tarnish on this org. Even though we have a new medical staff now pretty sure.

Bengals have an MRI on site also
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

I'll be honest, I was definitely disappointed with not picking up good OL players in FA, as that is a crucial need that I don't want to gamble on rookies to fill. The disappointment will be gone if they sign two players like Reiff and Kelly. But that still remains to be seen. If they wait until the draft, I would still call it a bad play (no matter how the picks turn out), because they left it up to chance (on something as important as protecting your QB). Don't mind taking chances in other areas, especially if it's not a very well known weakness, but not with JB's health.

Same. Didn't like waiting this long to add to the O-line. Still if it comes out alright I will be happy. But like you said, never leave
it up to chance with your QB's health. Burrow is our future, protect it.

If we add a receiver I'd rather it be a draft pick personally. Supposed to be a deep class. But I guess this could work out. Offensive line would be better.

I think they would still draft a WR at some point regardless.
