It’s really sad at this point, just sign the three players that need signed and hopefully a few decent guys and I’ll be happy. Chiefs did it to be within cap rules. They've already lost a couple starters. Bengals are under the cap and there's no need to restructure at this time and at the current time have lost 0 of the big 3. Although Hendrickson is probably going I would assume. Colts insider says they are talking to him along with 2 other teams. Quote
COB Posted 5 hours ago Report Posted 5 hours ago The colts? But wait, there’s no place Trey would rather be than right here in Cincinnati! Gosh! Shucks! Quote

Burrow literally offers his contract up for a restructure, trying to improve the team. The Brown family’s response? Just silence. I mean, sure, I guess, but at the moment it doesn’t seem like they need space. Even with the signings they’ve done so far they should still have like $18 million left, plus $40 million more locked up in Chase and Trey. Quote

Ok… they had the 30th Anniversary Cheesecake and my wife brought a slice home to me and it was amazing. Unfortunately, they no longer make it. Of course it was a limited time… Quote
AMPHAR Posted 5 hours ago Report Posted 5 hours ago Higgins $26m, Chase $22m and Trey $19m. $67m in cash/cap space already allocated to those 3. I would guess at min they have $110m planned for cash expenditure this year IF all are extended. Any extension/restructure of Burrow only helps IF he puts off his money. The details of the Allen/Mahomes new deals aren't out but it probably pays them more money this year while creating cap room. A Burrow restructure of that type is not what is needed and there's been no indication Burrow is willing to push off his money. Fans/Media want the Chase, Trey, and Tee deals done in March. I do too, just to move on to another topic, but there's really no requirement to have them done at the start of FA. Start of TC or July 15th will be the critical point. Although, I'm guessing Trey will be gone by then. Burrow pushing off his $25m salary planned for this year into a guaranteed 2026 roster bonus would help cash flow and cap. Quote

Most of the time give me basic new york cheescake, but that coconut cream version was awesome. Quote
COB Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago Man, even by Bengals’ standards, their free agency period is slow and uneventful. Quote

AMPHAR Posted 17 minutes ago Report Posted 17 minutes ago Bengals are getting slammed because the "price is going up". This is all based on Press release AAV. Not the greatest way to judge. Since the Myles Garret Contract is the now the "highest non QB" you'd have to wait to see details. However, the Crosby contract did not move the price upward as suggested by media. The discussion last summer was Chase had an offer to make him the highest paid WR. Was it on AAV? Cash? Not sure. JJ's contract paid him $39m in first year. $96m in first 3. Max's deal is lower in both metrics. $33m and $94m. Quote
