I wouldn’t sign Grier I would just stone smart at qb2 and pk3 behind hopkin

McKitty should be cut and replaced with another teams TE cuts; 49ers?

I am all for this too

There has to be better options. If you are really going for it this year - no reason to keep McKitty

Colt McCoy - line one please! Give yourself a friggin chance

With a PFF grade of 28.4, is anyone really worried Okoye will be poached?

No, not really

[powderblueboy]

I have a really hard time seeing another team grab him and put him on the 53 man roster. He is very raw, but is a physical beast and could possibly develop into a solid player. All for using our PS roster exemption on him and letting him develop.

I also don't see it.

Head coaches on crappy teams don't have the luxury of losing two years straight.
Maybe the Rams?

Not me. I'm not a PFF follower, but I assumed they actually watched his play. I don't know the specifics on how the IPP players get placed on teams, but something tells me that the GMs probably have a tacit agreement to not poach these guys.

I’m looking for DL depth.

The Bengals enjoyed production up and down the defensive line depth chart, inside and outside. How many can they keep in the building? If they cut loose breakout preseason stars Domenique Davis and Raymond Johnson III will another team pluck them? What about Tufele? Can 2022 seventh-round pick Jeff Gunter stay on the practice squad? They would love to keep most in the building in case needed, but teams saw the same tape as the Bengals. There should be interest and they need to figure out how to protect as many as possible.

Hopkins traded to Browns for a 7th round pick.

Dicker is our kicker

I was watching Albert O for Denver looking very sharp...and the announcers were claiming he was #5 on the depth chart? I think the Ravens had a big time performer, who is on the outside of the bubble...forgot his name, started with an S...but he looked big, mobile, and was catching some nice passes...

TE3s shouldn’t be too hard to get, better than McKitty is out there.

[Lone Bolt]

I watched Okoye...anybody thinks this kid is ready for the pro rotation is just silly...its a neat story, and the kid has natural gifts, but he doesnt belong on any team's 53..... this year....

Zack Kuntz is available. 6-8, 250, 4.53 Huge catch radius and Fast. ?

[SuperCharged]

WOW!!!!! We actually got a draft pick from a player trade? I'll take the extra 7th.
