Griever 283 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 I get worried carrying only two QBs...I hope to god Burrow is ready wk 1 but if he isn't we'd have to keep our fingers crossed that Allen can stay healthy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crazycat 34 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 I wouldn't mind seeing John Brown signed. He always seemed to be a guy the QB could rely on, plus if memory serves me correctly, he does have some speed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sparky151 559 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 We should look for a better backup QB than Allen or Finley. But that's not the Bengal way. We could get a guy with dozens of starts for not much more than vet min. Flacco would be cheap and certainly an upgrade from Allen. I've no objection to signing a vet WR in free agency but it isn't a priority compared to the O-line. Given that Thuney and Zeitler are off the market and the Bengals were never in on Trent Williams, there are still options available that would be upgrades from what we had last year and won't break the bank. PFF gave Larry Warford a 73.1 rating for 2019, which would have ranked 12th in the league last year, a couple spots behind Thuney. Highest ranking Bengal guard last year was Redmond at 48th with a 61.5 ranking. Gabe Jackson was 40th with a 63.7. Warford is 29 and we could probably get him for 3 years for 18-20 mil total. That would be a good start. Saints are still about 11 mil over the cap. They have to get there by 4 pm today. If they trade Ramczyk they have no dead money and clear 11 mil. We might be able to get him for our 3rd round pick. It's a good draft for tackles so Saints might go for that. They just re-signed James Hurst so they have cover for a rookie. That would fix our RT position and let us trade down if desired in round 1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I_C_Deadpeople 551 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Rumors that the Pats are making a play for Deshaun Watson. That would be huge. Watson will probably meet with Kraft at a massage parlor Panthers are chasing Watson as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BengalFanInTO 669 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 That's some solid cash for AJ. He hasn't had more than 50 catches since 2017 and has only one 1,000 yard season since 2016. Guy's been all but stealing the past two or three years. Having said that, I am a fan. Kid played hard for many years and kept his mouth shut. I wish him well. Hopefully he will have a revival in ARI, even if it's a minor one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sparky151 559 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 There are 5 teams which are still over the cap ahead of the 4 pm deadline. Should be some trade options there including Havenstein and Ramczyk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sparky151 559 Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Bengals aren't likely to sign Golladay. He came to them and asked for an offer. I'm sure they threw out something lowball since WR isn't a high priority in FA. If he's willing to take it, great, but he'll likely get better offers from teams that need a WR1 or 2.
