Ravens not resigning linderbaum made sense, until he signed his deal with the raiders and got more than what they could have optioned him for.

I thought about it. They’re still the worst but Art II’s Steelers aren’t too far behind. Laugh all you want at the Browns, but if Burrow fell into their laps instead of ours, does anyone else think Haslam wouldn’t have been spending money during Burrow’s prime? The Bengals FO is the cheapest, most risk adverse ownership group in the NFL. They needlessly inflate their current year cap just so they can avoid guarantees and spend less money. I don’t think it’s even debatable at this point that they’re the worst in the division.

Bengals extend Orlando Brown, but mixed reports on if for 1 or 2 years.
I was hoping they might draft his replacement this year.

me too.
Of all the things for the Bengals front office to be spending time on during the free agent signing period, this is just ....bizarre. Fix the Defensive Line? Give Golden a linebacker? Nah, let's sign our aging marginally effective offensive tackle who is often overmatched.
Re: 2025 Cincinnati Bengals Part 3: Can the Defense Get a Stop?
Age 30 and 31 seasons, I don't have a problem with that re-signing.
I'd love to see a swing tackle drafted this year or next year that could be good depth and maybe develop into his replacement.

Bengals just signed DT Johnathan Allen formerly of the Vikings.
Didn't realize he had been in the league that long.

They gave him WAY more money than I expected. This pretty much means that Carter and Knight are going to be the starters at LB going into camp. Yikes.

Unless Styles falls in the draft.

Everyone overpays. When the cap goes up everything and everyone gets overpaid. And if it’s the same MO of not guaranteeing money they have to as well. The day we complain that the Bengals overplays must be the rapture.
Re: 2025 Cincinnati Bengals Part 3: Can the Defense Get a Stop?
Three new defensive starters, figure they'll get at least one more in this draft. I was hoping we'd get more like 6 new starters, so they're not too far off.
Re: 2025 Cincinnati Bengals Part 3: Can the Defense Get a Stop?
Caleb Banks who I believe the Bengals overrated and were considering at 10 broke his foot. If he gets to the second you have to take him.
Re: 2025 Cincinnati Bengals Part 3: Can the Defense Get a Stop?
That stinks for that kid but maybe the bengals will get smart and draft Caleb Downs
Re: 2025 Cincinnati Bengals Part 3: Can the Defense Get a Stop?
Just now realized Allen was the one who tackled Burrow when he tore his ACL.
That said Washington's stadium is probably more responsible for that injury than anything.

I think Michael Jordan was mostly responsible for it. I don't think the field had much to do with it - if a QB takes that hit on any field, it's probably not ending well. I don't think it was dirty or anything like that, though.
