Dov Kleiman is a hack.

I would definitely prefer to see the Cincy defense get worse. Need them to lose some defensive players and would not mind seeing the Cincy DC get hired to a head coaching spot. Arizona recently interviewed him and they like him enough for a second interview next week.

Discount. I bet none. Wrs don't normally give discounts. Higgins is number 1 wr on most teams and he knows it. He will get Hill money from someone and it won't be them. Chase will demand highest paid.

He hates Mahomes.

They should trade Chase and pay Higgins. They can get a bag of picks for him to replace what they lose. Easily 5 picks.

I'd rather Arizona hire EB....that way we get 2 third round picks.

Not sure if you are serious on this. No non QB is worth 5 picks.

So if you do that, you will probably have one or two WR2s (if that) and a couple of more scrubs at WR. That will have to be carried by your QB. Or taking chances trading for injured players with upside like Toney.

And you will be relying on things like an aging Kelce, seventh round RBs, etc.

A TE like Kelce, or on that level, seems like such a steal because of what he produces vs what he is paid. A top TE and a couple of WR that are role players are definitely the best way to spend your cap dollars for production from receivers.
Drafting at the bottom of every round forces Veach and company to think outside the box. It also makes it very hard to get that top talent without taking some bigger risks.

We should be thanking the Raiders for overpaying for Devante Adams or else we’d have given Tyreek a monster contract and would have some tough decisions to make at this time. That being said to quote the Wire, if you come after the king you better not miss. The Bills and Bengals took their shot and missed now they have to deal with the repercussions.

Same agent as Jesse Bates who wants a big ole top 5 safety type bag, which he won't get from the Bengals.

Tee has said he grew up a Bengals fan but that doesn't go as far as the green.

He blocked me bc I called him out on his racist bullshit during the Hill dilemma.

He’s a piece of shit.

I think the Bengals will sit down and talk to find out where Tee and his team is. If it's stupid money, like Bates, they'll just offer him around and get some picks in return.

They know the most important part of this offseason is getting that line right and protecting Burrow. They still have Chase, Boyd and Hurst and they'll draft a WR.

The formula is, as you all know, elite QB, Oline, at least one superstar receiver and a bunch of interchangeable RBs and lower WRs.

You have to be willing to let go of some good players, get picks in return, draft well and hit more than miss in FA. The last 2 years the Bengals have shown all of that except the letting a good player go for picks part.

The Chiefs have the QB and the ring so they already have the drawing power. That's what the Bengals are striving for, the ring. They don't have that draw yet.
