2026 Trade Deadline

[HoosierCat]

I got $20 that says Ebiketie is better than whoever they get with that comp pick. Our FO is a goat rodeo.

[TJJackson]

DE Is not a great area of need.

Ah well, another nothingburger

No doubt still would have been a steep point, but why not throw another player in the trade or something. I mean I’m as bad as the Bengals I have no idea how this shit works lol

The Rams went all in trading picks and won a SB (against us), now the Jags are doing the same thing.  
 

Meanwhile back at PBS: “These rules and regalashuns is too hard to figger out!”

Fixed.

Bills acquired S Amani Hooker and a fifth. Tits get a second.

[Prophecy]

...and no additions will be made, The Brown Family will never do what needs to be done. A compensatory 3rd rd pick (last picks of the 3rd) for a team that cant draft, is useless anyways. 

Jags and Bills going in hard. F'n Amani Hooker to the Bills? What the F are the Bengals doing?

[HoosierCat]

Vikes trade for Kirk Cousins. No surprise there after last night.

[HoosierCat]

“Nothing. We’re good.”

[volcom69]

Yea we’re real good!

This is no championship defense that’s for sure, not against good offenses they will see. 
 

There backend sucks, LB can’t tackle, and nobody on the edge besides Mafe can sack a QB. But hey we’re good 

LOL oh Zac and Duke lol 

[ArmyBengal]

So exactly what I expected.

Not even surprised and don’t care.

No reason to be upset unless you seriously thought they were going to make a huge trade. Why think that?

Bring on the Steelers…

[HoosierCat]

It should be noted that they *did* accomplish something today: First, they confirmed that the head coach is a liar and that he and the staff do not, in fact, believe they are good. Two, they confirmed that She-mar does not actually have the power and that despite spending multiple first and second round picks and signing Mafe, they still need help getting to the QB.

So good job FO.

[Stripes]

Oh well. The only trades that I believe are realistic needle movers were both Jacksonville's (Davis and Bates). I don't care about Hooker to Buffalo or Downs to Kansas City.

[COB]

The other AFC contenders are adding good players, meanwhile Mike is in his office teaching the interns how to do salary cap calculations in his abacus.

Press Conference (in my head)

MEDIA:  Your 3 biggest competitors in the AFC, Bills, Jags, and Chiefs all got better today, yet you didn't make any moves?

DUKE: We're Good

MEDIA: Did having a Front Office full of Nepo Babies who don't know anything about football have any bearing on the rescinded trade today?

DUKE: Huh?

MEDIA: If you would have actual Football people in the front office, they would have known that you would lose a 3rd rd compensatory pick with that trade, but instead, you heard it from a guy on Social Media?

DUKE: We knew, we were just testing the media to see if they knew.

 

F*cking Idiots! Hire actual Football people, not your Daughter, her husband, their 2 daughters, etc

YOU'RE  THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE LEAGUE

[COB]

Very much an understaffed front office.  They get stretched thin every year.  Can’t negotiate with guys because it’s “figure out the cap” season or whatever they’re doing.  I recall agents saying there just isn’t a known contact when you want to try a trade or a signing.  Just see who you end up talking to and hope they have the push within the organization to do something, make a deal.

[ArmyBengal]

And today confirms that it’s not just the fans that don’t know how hard it is to run an NFL franchise.

Embarrassment of a front office.

The only thing worse is they don’t care.
