I like Hill and the price is fine. Still hoping to see a few new players tho. Rolling all the same guys out there next September isn’t likely to yield better results.

Tobin said exactly that at his presser at the combine.  Basically said we’re not running the same team out there.  Also something like the guys who played well are going to get the $$ from the underperformers.  
 

So I’m fine with signing Hill, Ossai, Gesicki, Cody Ford, etc.  Some starters, some rotation, some depth, but those guys all filled their roles well.  If not well, at least serviceable.  
 

Now bring on the free agent starting guards!

Encouraging comments.

In an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show (via Joe Goodberry), NFL insider Ian Rapoport gave a positive update on the Bengals’ contract talks with Chase and Higgins, saying he believes both deals get done, but it may take a bit with Chase.

“I think he probably does (get up to that $40 million mark), and I don’t get the sense that the Bengals are that far from it now,” said Rapoport, who later added, “The Bengals would like it done immediately, and they’ve offered really close to that (number). But if you’re Ja’Marr Chase, it sounds to me like he’s like, ‘I got time. There’s no rush.’”

Rapoport later, “I actually think they probably get both of these guys done,” referring to Higgins and Chase.

Are there any guards in free agency?

A couple have resigned with their team.   No big deals so far.    All the dudes talked about are still out there.   As a whole the FA class isn't ridiculous so far.   The big headliners have been guys extending with their team or trades.

Perine is back to the Bengals.   Mahomes shouldn't have dissed him on the bench. 

 

So ends the Zack Moss experiment, I suppose.

For sure Moss.  When he was healthy he played 0 ST snaps.    Now you have a couple backs that can get snaps in the offense and also contribute to STs with Perine and Herbert.   I'm assuming Herbert isn't a FA.  Then Williams is looking at a uphill battle.

Reporting error, I guess.     

Good time to remember unless Bengals acknowledge the signing, there's some chance it doesn't happen.   Everyone trying to be first on the news this day.   I don't think Bengals can report guys off different teams for a couple days considering this is the tampering period.

Edit: Bengals.com will acknowledge the report by place "Reports:".   I don't think the team acknowledges it until they sign.

Commanders might be out on Trey because they just traded for the Gas Mask Bong Left Tackle from Houston.  Tunsil. 

Edit: remove trade comp its a bunch of picks from 2025 and 2026.  Wait til finalized.   I guess if they have their 2nd rounder or whatever they still could give it to the Bengals.

Army, how does ArmyBengal JR feel about losing bongface pothead?

We are both happy about it. That dude was a walking penalty last year. You can’t pay that much to your blindside protector and have them be a liability. Tunsil is not what he use to be.
