They don’t or won’t have all that anymore. They will certainly have to get rid of Hunt. Clowned is gone isn’t he? And there will be more.

There are so many contradicting stories out there, we will see how things unfold. I feel people are just over the top with this story. Next we will have a story about someone seeing him at the airport and asking him if he will sign in Cincy and it will be in every tweet and podcast minutes later.

He’ll visit with them for sure. Dolphins have big time o-line issues, and their qb is a lefty, so the RT is now the blindside protector. He can get LT money in Miami. Plus,majority of Nfl players have a boner for the city of miami

Hi everyone. I have been on an extended leave of absence from all things sports related since the game. In fact, this is the first post I've made in JN since that night. There's a thread in Klotsch explaining a lot of why, for those of you who care.
Anywho kids. It's time for me to get back in here. I know that tickles many who love my use of gifs and open talk about cannabis, deal with me. And FYI, I just came in from the garage.
But, since I'm back, is there a list somewhere of who has signed and stuff? I'm as clueless as fred facing a raccoon with a stick!

I checked the beat writers - NONE say he is headed anywhere else just that the visit ended.

Will be fun to watch all the 180s if we sign Collins.
"Yay! Collins in for a visit! Katie is in charge now!"
*Collins leaves with no deal*
"This dude was in and out of the lineup. If he's so good, why did Jerry dump him?"
*Collins signs*
"We now have a top 10 line and will win all teh Sooper Bowlz!"

Great weather, zero state taxes. Best beaches in the US. I grew up in Cincinnati and moved quite a lot after college. Moved to S Florida 5 years ago and we love it. We’re 1 hour n of Miami.

They have pretty substantial contract in front of Clowney from what I understand.

Yes, it does work like that. There are a lot of ways to move money around. And cutting players is one of them. I can't even count how many players are cut every offseason to save cap space. Look at our players contracts. They never have guaranteed money after the first few years. And that is a big reason for missing out on bigger name guys. They want that assurance. I don't blame them cause in the NFL you get cut all the time to make cap space.

Young millionaire athletes, tons of nightlife, fantastic weather year round, great beaches and plenty of beautiful, foreign women. Makes sense to me.

We may see rumbles of an extension for Burrow as early as next season. Patrick Mahomes signed his fat contract after this third season. Higgins will be up for extension in two seasons. I don't think your assessment is accurate.
Bengals don’t have to resign during their rookie years. Think burrow will sit out of he doesn’t get a new contract? Me neither. I think my scenario is more likely.

Lol. Does Tua even need a good Oline? From what I have seen he can't throw it far enough down the field with any accuracy to warrant very long protection in the pocket. Lmao. Sorry could not resist the shot at Tua. He sucks

You guys realize these players can live anywhere they want, right? Bates and Dunlap both lived in Fla while playing for Cincy.

Yes, but not during the season. These guys live in Cincinnati from July-end of season, so January or February. For 6-7 months, they are in Cincinnati.
