Bengals are taking on $2m in dead cap to not have Joe Mixon play for them all while trading him to a team that should be in the playoffs. I think that should tell you to know.
They didn’t need the additional cap either.

Guessing Brock still hasn’t hit the time he wants to in his training. Can’t see a scenario where he doesn’t test at all before the draft. If he doesn’t - he’s going to be in the realm of possibilities.

Here’s a really good article on how they run their offense against different coverages. Until they can establish the run, they’re going to see a lot of Tampa 2. They might look predictable but Joe is just so good at identifying what variations of Tampa teams are running. In terms of the guys they added - they got more athletic which is something they lack both at skill positions and offensive line. Geisicki in particular should be a weapon against T2 and beating the MLB in their deeper drop and helping them present 12 personnel at times to keep teams from disguising coverages.
They need another man coverage beater. I’m hoping that comes in the form of a day 2 pick this year.

Bengals trading draft picks for a player? Not happening. Especially not for one who is going to set a record for guaranteed money for a non-QB.
Hopefully one day down the road though if he gets cut.

The extra comp pick seems like a perfect spot to grab a young guy with wheels. They could even start running some wide zone concepts they couldn’t run with Joe. They’ll probably need a right tackle who can move a bit though.
Jon Brooks/Marshawn Lloyd/Trey Benson.

This dude is how you bludgeon C2 and C3 looks.

Love this. Wanted this to happen last year.
guessing the one year deal is G trying to get the Burrow bump and cash in next year. He’s going to be so nasty split out.

Glad they had the stones to do it. Bummed they didn’t give Joe the chance to look before FA started. Moss will fit nicely and allow them to possibly draft a day 2 guy with the extra comp pick.

Panthers getting an extra 2nd round pick could be significant if the Panthers want to make an offer for Tee.

Dax is going to probably be a dime corner and special teams play and not on the field much which would qualify as a good thing.

Love this move.

Never thought he would get a multi-year. Good for Drew.

not the Mulghetta chart I was looking for - but a pretty god visual at the issue at hand. The Brown signing was a step in the right direction but still below what 3rd tier guys are getting gtd. Wise.

At one point they were trying to change that. I don't know if they did
If you’re talking about the Bengals - they’ve been pulling in a lot of extra cash doing concerts and things of that nature. Probably made a hefty sum having both of the Swift concerts at probably 70% of capacity.In terms of NFL - there were some questions regarding whether the Browns had done it for Watson. Seems like a dumb rule but I’m sure the owners love it because they don’t want to fully guarantee deals like the NBA/MLB and they can invest that money rather than it sitting there doing nothing. It’s where the rich owners can swing their dicks around a little more than “poor” small market guys. Big leg up.

I would expect that news to probably make his market more robust. He doesn’t necessarily have to be 100% healthy to pass a physical. He’s probably going to be a wave 1 guy if he’s going to be ready during camp. Probably just loses out on some gtd. That he can make up through snap percentage.
-
I would assume on a 4 year $90-$100M deal he would want at least 50-60% gtd. I think there was a chart floating out there that showed how Mulghetta usually gets in that area.
Im sure the Bengals would give a healthy signing bonus and guarantee year 1 up to the $21.7M they are doing now. Probably in the $30-35M ranges likely why the two sides won’t be able to make it work. Was hoping the leverage they had would help especially coming off an injury ridden year but sounds like they are content to bet on themselves.

They probably don’t have the extra liquid cash to put into escrow. Once you do it for one non-QB, the rest are going to start coming for it.!
Jamarr will be the first real test.

“Some free agents are coming off injuries and one is Bengals defensive tackle D.J. Reader, who tore his quad in December and hit the market a few months shy of his 30th birthday. I’m told the expectation is Reader will be ready for the season opener and could be cleared for the start of training camp—though it seems like whoever signs him will probably be careful with him through the summer.”

Well, fuck.

Guessing any chance of that ended when he didn’t take that handoff and ended up getting the quarterback hit in whatever game that was. It’s safe to assume their will be a new third down back via draft or FA.

Chew on this for a second. The Bengals don’t give a shit about running the ball. They have the most accurate quarterback in the league. They would probably throw it 100% of the time if they could.
Until they dedicate the appropriate resources to it, they are going to be running their offense out of 11 personnel and letting the short passing game and RPOs be their primary run game.
