There's a lot of teams with heavy Defensive End needs just signing people. Us included. Which says to me that either a.) Bengals are turning away phone calls or b.) The price tag is so high from the Bengals teams aren't interested. I'm guessing the former. They've got a ton of money. Mostly from not paying anyone. So if they wanted to pay Hendrickson, Higgins, and Chase - they probably could. And it's likely that even if they feel they could only do two, they'd probably do Hendrickson before Higgins.

Hearing him say "I can't handle the cold" and then he signs here is wild. Either he was just joking or our offer was a lot better than San Fran and Miami's.

Oh. Okay. Conflicted. If he can stay on the field - he could be a difference maker. But that's a big if. At 1 year, 12.6m - definitely worth the risk.

Oh, I know they were saying 30 and Cook for 12. But Cook alone with 30 isn't worth anywhere close to enough to move up 18 picks.

Not even close. Cook's value isn't what most fans think it is. Running Backs take a hit when it comes to trade value. Guys on the last year of their deal take a hit when it comes to trade value. Guys who want a massive new contract take a hit on trade value. He's probably worth a 4th. A 3rd if we're *really* lucky.

As expected. If not for Gabe's injury it would have been a 4th and 5th. But because of it, it was always going to be two 5th's. Glad it's been made official.

I'd imagine it's something to do with the problems Twitter has been having over the past couple days and/or the site deciding it takes up too much bandwidth.

Idk - how did you feel in 2023 when we signed Darrynton Evans? How did you feel in 2024 when we signed Darrynton Evans? That should give you an idea on how to feel in 2025 when we signed Darrynton Evans.

For the third season in a row. And it'll be the third season in a row he's cut too.

I mean, this isn't really him being "tied to us". It's just from an article by a guy at Sports Illustrated from a couple days ago thinking he'd be a good fit for us.

Interesting. Do you reunite with your brother or not have to pay taxes?

Outside of the Draft - what else can be done? Garrett and Crosby stayed put. Sweat, Mack, Reddick, Young, Koonce, Ossai - all swooped up today. Trade for Hendrickson? I'd be here for it. But there's no indication they're taking offers and even if they did - good chance Cinci won't deal him to us. Only things that are left are aging, oft injured, and/or declining options like Joey Bosa, Za'Dariius Smith, or DeMarcus Lawrence. Or under the radar guys like the guy we just signed.

Me too. Especially at the deal he signed for. I'd have done that. Both he and Groot would have made a better combo than he and Epenesa and the cost for both combined would have come in less than the cost of Garrett alone.

Murphy's been more of a Nickel throughout his career. Did it exclusively before coming to the Vikings. I didn't list him among the guys left bc I don't think he's a full time perimeter guy.

Asante Samuel, Kristian Fulton, Mike Jackson. Hell, if it came down to Douglas at his price or bring back Dane Jackson at his price and Draft a guy - I'd take the latter.

Here's hoping not. He was awful last year. He turns 31 this year and it's very likely he hit the wall.

That was 8 years ago. A lifetime in Football years. He turns 34 this year.

Love Kupp as a plauer. But I just don't see us signing a guy who is a Slot after paying Khalil Shakir what we did to be our Slot and also having Curtis Samuel and Dalton Kincaid that take half of their reps from the Slot.

We signed a Wide Receiver today to a 3 year deal for 36m with 18m guaranteed, with Josh's contract. And we have more than enough money to do that deal The Pats signed him to right now. The bottom line is they decided that they didn't want to pay more than what the Patriots signed him to for his role on the team.

Josh's contract had nothing to do with this decision. They either wanted an upgrade from Hollins and/or felt that their number was below 4.2m up to 5 with incentives. And I don't blame them there.

4m was my ceiling and judging by the fact that they let him walk at just above that, 3.5-4 was prob there's as well. If not just straight up looking to upgrade from him.

Looking it over on what's left, it seems the Safety market is pretty much at a standstill waiting for Holland at the top and there isn't much of anything as far as 1-Tech DT's. *The list doesn't include Lions DE Za'Darius Smith or Commanders DT Jonathan Allen 8.
