Ideally you get him for 3-4 mill but there is salary inflation at the moment and someone is going to offer him more than that if he reaches Free Agency. Hurst got 7 and he isn't top 10 in any particular skill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|BlackJesus| Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 ^ Drew Sample is the perfect example of why I hate 1 year deals. As they could have easily signed him to a 3 year deal this off season at 2 million a year. Now they will have to pay more as he stepped his game up in a big way. He's only making 1.2 million for this season, a huge bargain - but he's going to cash in next time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one has said he's the best blocking TE overall, although he certainly is the best among the Bengals TE group. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other teams overpay for average players on good teams all the time (see Hayden Hurst / CJ Uzomah, who Sample has the same number of touchdowns as in 2023). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is beating down any doors for this guy - servicable veteran. Blocking TE's are not exactly where you want to put cap money. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sample took a free agent visit to Arizona but the Cardinals passed on signing him. Ended up back in Cincinnati with a contract offer when the draft didn't go their way when it came to the TE position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And…for additional value…he has arguably the nicest-looking family members in attendance in lower section 104. Parents are tall/blonde/Nordic…sisters/girlfriend (spouse) tall/blonde/Nordic. Very friendly folks too. Although the girlfriend/spouse and a really drunk yo-yo had some words earlier in the year. I think he was trying to hit on her, but was insulting Drew at the same time. Bet he’s an ace in the bars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we are lucky all way to Super Bowl win. The higher you get the more naysayers along the way. Bengals touch alot of pases that wind up in our hands because of their awareness.. Fumbles do to hard hits or punchouts make it happen.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|High School Harry| Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 This has to be a particularly frustrating call for Volson. The play wasn’t flagged. The play was chippy all the way around as Hyde joined the pile, tackling Joe Mixon after the whistle himself. The Bills did have a number of players do the same thing or slam players to the ground out of bounds. (***thought I saw some of this at the game... Bills piling on..hsh) Sometimes, as a team dealing with that, you have to sort of answer the call without going over the edge. Volson did so by trying to insinuate to Hyde he should stay off finished piles. *** At least he got his money's worth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebengal Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 It does look kind of head to head to me and I wonder why it wasn’t flagged but fined after the fact. But we’ve all been criticizing Volson for not being physical enough. 😜 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_C_Deadpeople Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 Off topic - in the CFL my home team, Winnipeg Blue Bombers are now headed for their fourth straight Grey Cup. They have won two of the last three and are lead by former Bearcat Zach Collaros - who just set a new CFL record for being the starting QB in 4 straight Grey Cups. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
