Cincinnati Bengals (Same Ole Bengals)

[GoingFor3]

Burrow will revitalize the franchise. I just hope they spend every other pick on offensive lineman. I would rather they pick someone else than pull a David Carr on this kid.

That name seems vaguely familiar. I had almost blocked that era in Bengals history out so thanks a lot for fucking that up for me.

The only thing that will revitalize the Bengals is someone buying out the Brown family.

We have an owner in Cleveland who would be a better fit for Cinci.... We’ll work out the details dont worry about it.

The biggest NFL veterans who could be cut in the 2020 offseason

Andy Dalton, QB, Bengals

Savings from cutting Dalton: $17.7 million

Dalton gave the Bengals nine seasons of mostly good, never great quarterbacking. Now he has no place on team ready to draft Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow with the No. 1 overall pick. Dalton’s career in tiger stripes is almost certainly over.

Even though Cincinnati will need a veteran quarterback to help ease Burrow’s presumptive transition from LSU to the NFL, it’s time for both sides to move on. The money saved by releasing the Pro Bowl quarterback can be spent acquiring weapons and bolstering the offensive line tasked with keeping Burrow’s jersey clean in 2020.

Entire article: https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2020/2...rans-released-cut-2020-free-agency-salary-cap

Over 9 seasons Dalton has pocketed over $83M, not bad for a second round pick. It's too bad the Bengals can't trade him for a draft choice (or 2); however, no GM in their right mind would offer even a deflated football for him considering he's under contract in 2020 for $17.5M, is a crappy starting QB, and knowing he will undoubtedly be released by the Bengals (i.e. could pick him up for fair market value as a free agent, etc.)

Re: The money saved by releasing the Pro Bowl quarterback can be spent acquiring weapons and bolstering the offensive line

Let's hope that is the case.

Yes Alex, I will take "Shit that Mike Brown will never do" for 200.

Haha that is just what I was thinking. Everything in the article is exactly that the Bungles should do, which is why it will not happen.

From a non-Bengals fan: calling Dalton a Pro Bowl QB is just fucking stupid. They just hand those out with a purchase of a Coke, too?

Pro Bowl QB Derek Anderson...

And the OL was bolstered when that contract was given to Bobby Hart the wedding singer after he graded the worst OL on the planet. So yeah, that’s happening...

Would like to see the Bengals trade down a couple spots or so. Draft Isaiah Simmons or Okudah this season. Tank next season, draft Trevor Lawrence next year (feel his frame would hold up better on that offensive line).

That’s what I was ultimately hoping for this season with drafting Chase Young. Tank next year, get Lawrence. But I can’t be upset about drafting Burrow.

You guys want Barbie over Burrow?

Not that we want one over the other. Just that this rebuild will take multiple off seasons. Like I said, I’m stoked to draft Burrow.
