That’s disappointing. Wanted him back, thought he’d be back. It takes two though.

This is probably Bell’s last contract, so going for the big bucks over a chance at a championship makes sense. Unless the Bengals didn’t bother to offer him anything. Players nearly always take the money. Nearly always.

The Bengals drafted Anderson and Hill
Last year. That should have told right there Bell and Bates were not coming back after the 2022 season. Those young guys have to play at some point

What is interesting is that when Bell got here he was considered a 2nd tier FA who had kind of underperformed. I wonder where we go from here, but I have faith in Lou's system. I do think we see Pratt not leaving the field now to help with communication now that Bell and presumably Bates are gone.

This one shocks me, I fully expected him back. Vonn will always be a Cincinnati legend for his hit on JSS which was the start of the turnaround.

That sucks to lose both guys this offseason. Theres some serious big shoes to fill this offseason. Just glad Lou is here to do that.

I appreciated Bell's play and leadership.
Does his money eventually go to Logan Wilson? ![]()

Lou sure helped turn Vonn's career around. Hope he can work miracles with our young guys in Dax and Tycen. (03-13-2023, 04:45 PM)Crazyjdawg Wrote: It's crazy.

Worst to 1st happens routinely in divisions. It's really hard to say.

He was also a player the New York Giants trusted in the slot. He played by far the most snaps in his career in 2022 (1,006) and earned a career-high 71.5 coverage grade in the process. Love is a good tackler in space, with his 80 tackles in 2022 the seventh most among safeties and his six missed tackles the second fewest among safeties in the top 25 in total tackles.

Terrell Edmunds could be that "we like this guy but we have this guy" with the Steelers paying Fitzpatrick.

I think the Bengals are looking to upgrade over Bell. Someone in between Bates and Bells contract. It wouldnt shock me if they landed someone like Poyer or CJ Gardner Johnson.
