We also are in need of an OT, but really at this point, I would have been OK with trading Mixon for Cam Akers and a 4 or 5-round pick to the LA Lambs. Also, put an OC on that list.

FO knows it’s not happening in 2022.
They spent in the off-season. Credit there. Everyone told them they had to have a better OL.
They went and got it. Hasn’t mattered one ***** bit.
4-4, 0-3 in the division, and the Browns stuffed them in a locker in front of God & the World in prime time last night.
They’re not forking out any more money for the pathetic ROI they’ve gotten from the off-season investments.

Cam Akers is one of the few backs in the league who is undeniably worse than Joe Mixon. Akers is one of the worst players in the league. LAR couldn’t pay anyone to take him.

In other words, they are uninterested in titles.

Let this be a lesson to anyone who thought things had changed because we built an inflatable tent and changed the name of the stadium.
The old man will always have a small time mentality.
Yes we are going to pay Burrow and Chase but it’s ***** scary to think what kind of team we are going to put around them in the years to come.

I cannot believe we did not trade for a CB today after the news. Guess we really do not care about our window.

Supposedly we're in talks with the Rams offering a 6th Round pick for Akers.

It's tough. Every team needs a cb.

And not only did the bengals not make a move, many of the teams they compete against did make moves to improve. Always a bengals fan but am definitely a frustrated fan today

You cannot be serious about this. Cam Akers is absolutely terrible.

Can CTB even play? We put flowers on Cooper instead of him which I found odd. Then flowers goes down and we put dax on Cooper instead of ctb.

Ridley to Jaguars for 5th round pick. I would have been interested in that.

Everyone is trashing CTB but what on earth do people expect? The guy has been injured most the year, wasn't getting reps in training camp, and was completely thrown into the fire.
When it comes to playing in this league, its more than athletic ability. It's knowledge of position, scheme, plays, technique, etc. Reps help with that. I am not expecting much from CTB until he gets more seasoned.

Have you payed any attention to WJ3 this season? Washington was literally going to cut him if no teams came calling. And Teryl Austin was probably the only one that did (not to mention Pittsburgh wanted to draft him in the first place).
He was benched and has been beyond terrible.
