|BlackJesus| Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 After a full flurry on day 1, Bengals still have FA options on day 2, especially at RB and RT ... - CEH at RB - Aaron Jones at RB - AJ Dillon at RB - Trent Brown at RT - Mekhi Becton at RT
|BlackJesus| Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Bengals were not going to pay him that. Good luck Chido ...
|BlackJesus| Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Now get Bowers to play alongside him ...
sparky151 Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 In the "dogs that didn't bark in the night" category, it seems like it's all quiet on the Jonah Williams front. I hope the Bengals plan isn't to wait him out til his price drops, then re-sign him. We should have outbid the Giants for Eluemunor. Now we can sign a Fleming or Fant or Becton but will still have to use an early pick on a RT. We should give up on Reader if his price is 15 mil or higher. That's as much as he made last year when he was healthy and a year younger. We can go after an A'Shawn Robinson or Sheldon Rankins. They're solid vets who will be cheaper than Reader and let us draft a DT at our convenience instead of need.

He was a great pickup and overall, played really well… until last year. Might have been rust/coming back from the injury… or maybe he just fell off the cliff. But good for him, getting another big bag. I wouldn’t have paid that, but I have no doubt he’ll be a great locker room guy and hopefully he’ll get back to playing well.

Wouldn’t be the worst thing to have him back… he’s not great but he’s solid, and finding someone reliable protecting JB who knows the offense and helps with continuity isn’t to be discounted. With Elemunour and Onwenu signed and the pickings pretty slim, if he’s not too pricey, I’d bring him back. Bechton is interesting but man, he gets hurt a lot.

sparky151 Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Mixon was a goner from the start. Moss is ok but I'd still take a RB on day 3. Getting the 3rd round comp pick will free up a 4th or 5th for the running back.
texbengal Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Mixon did a lot of good things here and when the team sucked, he still played hard and was a positive influence in the locker room. But it was time to move on and I like Moss a lot. More explosive than Joe at this stage. Hope Joe is able to keep playing for awhile… he had a really nice career in Cincinnati, to his credit

Jamie_B Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Zack Moss is a downgrade. But Joe can go get his yards behind a good Oline now. Probably need to draft a guy, but TBH this year's RB class isn't that great.

Le Tigre Posted March 12, 2024 Report Posted March 12, 2024 Prettying up a backup…”mid-tier”. And that all-encompassing word “cheaper”! Ehh..whatever. RB’s aren’t that essential anyway…so I read.
