I'm quite comfortable with that signing, as he is a valuable contributor in ways that don't always show up on the stat sheet.

Well, Duke did state the TE position shouldn't be a "revolving door" so this is one component of eliminating that.

I wouldn't touch him with a 10ft pole. Dude's knee is dead, 4 surgeries in 3 years.

He's gonna be a Jet.

Apparently the Browns are in on trying to sign DJ Reader.

We can cut Mixon and save 6.1 million of cap space if they cut him, or they ask him to take a pay cut and stay a Bengal. Team has options.

I agree, Sample is a run blocker first and many would rather have a receiving TE versus a blocking TE.

Quote:The #Titans are signing former #Broncos C Lloyd Cushenberry, per @jjones9. The former 3rd-round pick out of LSU has started 57 games in four years with Denver.

That would be a kick in the gut and an embarrassment to the Bengals to allow that to happen.

Quote:The #Jaguars are signing #Bills WR Gabe Davis to a 3-year deal.

Per Rapsheet

I was hoping JAX would trade for a Higgins reunion with TLaw.

Depends on his price and health.

Quote:The #Commanders plan to sign DE Dorance Armstrong.

A reunion with Dan Quinn.

If DJ goes to the Brows Duke should have his desk cleared by the end of the day.

Hes already straying on to thin ice with many in the fan base.

Not me. 

Dude is an absolute clown who can't draft and was given a gift with the Burrow and Chase layup picks. He should have been gone yesterday.

Quote:Splash: One of the top free agents is off the market, as #Dolphins star DT Christian Wilkins is headed to the #Raiders, sources say.

He gets a 4-year deal worth $110M base value that includes $84.75M guaranteed in a contract done by @DavidMulugheta of @AthletesFirst.

Per Rapsheet

[*pally*]

WR Gabe Davis signing with the Jags, a 3 year deal.

The Jags would have been one potential trading partner for Tee Higgins

Mulugheta? I heard he is a big time scumbag that teams will stop negotiating with and players should just shove him out of the way and keep him from getting them huge contracts with large guarantees because he also benefits from them getting paid more.

[RunKijanaRun]

Gabe Davis to Jags

At least he didn't join a an AFC North rival or a contender.

Man, I wanted both of these guys, especially Wilkins, but with Tee demanding a trade big game Gabe would of been a nice option.

Kendall Fuller is all I have heard about us being interested in, thought we would be more aggressive than this in this FA.

Not impressed with our FO so far. We need a RT and a DT at the very least in this FA.
