  1. I doubt they would tag him again, that's paying a ton of money, almost $45 million, to a guy in 2 seasons to be the #2 WR. Also, they will do a long-term deal with JaMarr in the next 12 months which will preclude them from tagging Tee again. You can't pay 2 WRs $20+ million each, no team in the NFL is capable of doing that.
  2. Trading Tee Higgins makes no sense for the Bengals, he's worth more to us than any draft pick at this point. No rookie WR is going to come in and have the same impact of Tee Higgins unless it's one of the top 3 WRs in the draft and even that is arguable. I don't think any team is going to give the Bengals a first-round pick for Tee so trading him for a 2nd pick when you can probably get a 3rd round comp pick in the future. Tee will have to stay in Cincy and get his $21 million, as long he doesn't have a career ending injury he will hit FA and get even more money ala Jessie Bates. Bates has made $36 million in the last two seasons, so the franchise tag worked out well for him.
  3. You're not putting any context into this, they were 9-8 mainly because the starting QB was hurt for all but 2 games he played in last year. If Burrow is healthy this team has proven to be one of the best in the NFL. I believe they have the best offensive line since Burrow has been in NFL and the offense is tailored made for him, he has a pass blocking RB and his former QB coach is now the OC. This could definitely be the year they win it all because they will be playing the last place schedule so it will be a weaker schedule than previous years as well, not that it matters because...
  4. I hope the Bengals go after Calais Campbell, he's the best option that is available. I know he's 37 years old but he's still playing at a high level and is a great locker room guy that any young player they bring in can learn from.
  5. I don't think that losing Mixon and Jonah necessarily makes us that much better as both of those guys were critical to the recent success that has justified our excitement of the current path of the Bengals. They have been replaced, but it remains to be seen if their replacements are upgrades. I agree that the roster is dynamic and will hopefully add more depth and another playmaker at TE and WR before opening day.
  6. The Browns are screwing the rest of the NFL, that Jerry Jeudy deal is nuts...
  7. I love to see him next to Henderickson and have those two just play like madmen...With Fiske, Henderickson, and Hubbard we would have the scrappiest, high-motor gamers who play the game the right way with good fundamentals and are sneaky athletic lunch pail guys who are heady and gritty.. https://awfulannouncing.com/2014/your-white-guy-code-word-power-rankings.html
  8. Any thoughts on the kid from BYU that is related to Penei Sewell...Kingsley Abunchofvowels...or something like that. These Nigerian and Polynesian players' last names have got me like...
  9. What position would he play and for the love of god..please don't say LG
  10. Signing Campbell would be a good move, he's a great locker-room guy and is good against the run.
  11. They did from what I could tell, but he wanted to weigh his options and left town without signing it. I know in years past players and their agents would come to Cincy to set a market and drum up interest only to get another team to sign them for a similar deal..not sure if that was Becton's play but thankfully the door on him going to this team has closed. Sounds like he took this opportunity for granted, it will be interesting to see where he lands.
  12. I thought you wanted to be friends...what happened??
  13. It's easy to say that after they get the deal done...you seemed triggered..lol
  14. To your point, the guys who say that come off like used car salesmen trying to sell you a lemon...i.e. La'El Collins getting a Bengals tattoo and talking all this stuff about being a bodyguard when he knew he was banged up and couldn't play well...he was trying to win over the fanbase and provide cover for when he got on the field it was obvious he's a liability. It's a business and these guys are independent contractors, so maximizing their earning potential is paramount.
  15. I'm sure he wants more money than Becton, but with the increase in the cap and Jonah's salary coming off the books that shouldn't have been a factor. The Bengals should be trying to get the absolute best 5 players they can get to play offensive line, not who the mediocre at best offensive line coach has a relationship with...seriously, what are they doing???
