Cappa has been BAD for 2 years and historically BAD last year. He is GONE put the booze away.

My thing with Sam is what role is he willing to come back for and does it make sense for both sides ? Let’s assume Hendrickson is back and let’s say the Bengals go edge at 17. Maybe Golden gets some production out of Murphy and who ever we take at 17 is ready to play and playing like a 1st rd. Pick. In this scenario Hubbard should be a rotational DE#4 type because the young guys earned reps. I don’t want to get into a situation where we’re trying to force feed Hubbard getting snaps to keep him happy. We were reluctant to bench Bell and Hilton was getting upset for getting taken off the field on passing downs. It’s not what have you done for the franchise it’s what can you give to the team currently. Just feel like his role can be filled by a young guy or it’s better for both sides to have a fresh start. He’s never been a sack guy which is fine because he still got pressures. He’s basically giving nothing as a rusher currently and the excuse the last two years has been injuries. He’s turing 30 just think age might be playing a factor as well.
