Yeah I get leaving for more but in both of those cases, the only way they get to the playoffs is by buying a ticket.

Always knew Bates was gone. Thought we would be able to keep Bell to pair with Dax. Bengals need to be hot on a replacement. Not worried though.

Keep Bates at this point. Him and Dax would be a nice pairing.

I had seen most places that Pratt's value on the open market was north of 10 million per season. 3 years at 21 million is a fucking steal !!!

HELL YEAH !! Happy Pratt is back !!

Ravens starting Guard, Ben Powers to the Broncos. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/03/13/ben-powers-agrees-to-sign-with-broncos/

Nice special teams signing.

On a side note, a new report names the Bengals as "Very Interested" in Detroit RB, Jamaal Williams. While it wouldn't surprise me if that is the case, I'm always a bit apprehensive in running wild with reports this time of the season. Williams got paid $6 million for TWO years in Detroit.

"When they do decide to respond" Maybe you should take their silence as a fucking sign Mina. Don't stop being alarmed though, because we all know the Bengals legislative branch is out to destroy all.

So Rams trade Jalen Ramsey to the Dolphins for a 3rd and a TE…. Does anyone go to the NFC anymore ??

Oh shit son, it’s Rookie Pool !!

I’ve had no issues with Mixon. He’s a hell of a nice guy from all my interactions with him. He comes to local high school football games and is welcoming to both parents that speak to him, as well as the youngsters. All that aside, the Bengals should not be paying him 12.7 million this coming season and certainly not the 13.1 in 2024. They pick up 7 million in his release this year.

There really isn’t much that will surprise me with this team heading into free agency. I didn’t expect them to be in the top end market of free agency. More of a let the dust settle approach. Always expected abates to be gone, Apple is whatever, and so simply figured they would go cheaper at TE through the draft. I thought Mixon was in the mix to be gone due to the fact there’s no way they are paying him nearly 13 million this year. Now he has off field issues going on and even though not directly his fault, the team won’t want to deal with that. Big pay cut or gone. The draft will depend on free agency. While fun to speculate at this point, that’s all it is. Im good with all of it to be honest. Burrow’s and Chase’s contracts are a nice problem to have, but will impact how they structure the roster moving forward.

Again, I really don’t care. I’ll leave this for you all.

Apple has been a complete bust everywhere he’s been since being drafted until he came here. Not sure the reason but he’s really turned his play around. I’m happy for the guy and wouldn’t mind him sticking for another 1-2 years. If they don’t resign him, it won’t be because he can’t shut the fuck up, but I really wish he would.

I don’t really give a rats ass if Mike Brown gives them a monthly ration of spam burgers and has them walk his dogs to cover exercise and meals. My point is I think it’s ridiculous these teams don’t have top of the line facilities. Will I lose sleep if they don’t ?? Not a fucking chance. Im hanging in Chicago’s Chinatown for the next few days and food and alcohol are calling my name…

Honestly, it’s hard for me to envision training and dining facilities for NFL players being anything less than fucking amazingly new and state of the art type shit. Anything less from billionaire owners really is inexcusable. Well, at least to me.

40 million for Daniel Jones huh ?? If we are doing the math, that makes Burrow worth at least 127 million per year, right ??

I would have to go look at his stats, but I’m tired and don’t feel like it, but maybe it’s not that he gets burned so much but when he does, it just looks really bad in the process.

Glad to see the Ravens doing so well cleaning up drama… who cares? Who cares about Bates either? Thanks and buh bye. Enjoy that winning culture in Cleveland.

TE, OT or CB There are plenty to like and someone should be there at #28 that will fill the role. See what they do with their own in free agency with maybe a new guy in there. Not stressing at this point .

If he wants to stick around, he has to be smarter than this. Even if he wasn't involved, someone IN HIS HOUSE was, which resulted in a child getting shot. Maybe it's not you Joe, but you are picking the people around you. PICK BETTER !! That whole thought process of where there's smoke, there's fire may apply here. Hoping he doesn't have anything to do with it directly, but thinking the team may feel it's just not worth it anymore when considering how much they are paying him.

Breaking news on the TV… Gunfire at Mixon’s house and a child was hit and taken to the hospital. Don’t know if he was involved.

As much as I do enjoy running mock draft on those sites, I go in fully understanding how completely full of shit they may be. ProFootballNetwork has one and the draft rankings are at times way different than others thinking on players. 2a. TE Darnell Washington- after trading down 5 spots and picking up an extra 2nd rounder 2b. OT Darnell Wright- RT of the future 2c. DT Calijah Kancey- How the hell does he fall this far? 3. CB Eli Ricks- In the 3rd round? Seriously? 4. RB Tyjae Spears 5. QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson 6. DE Ali Gaye 7. WR Eiljah Higgins

Oh my
