I get the jokes but us saying no to DK for a 2nd shows there are limits.

I wasn't joking. The Bengals want a high end player plus a high draft pick back. So if no high end player is going back to them they are going to want two or more high draft picks for him. He wants to be a top paid edge so it's going to take 38-41m per to sign him long term.

So the price tag to get him would be multiple firsts or first and second and a 38m+ contract.

We really can't afford to pay that kind of price tag.

Not to mention, by the time we are likely to have this roster turned around enough to win, Hendrickson will likely be close to retirement.

What the Bengals want is ~1/3 of the equation, and that is shrinking by the day. What Hendrickson and the team they would trade him to wants is quickly acquiring leverage.

They technically have until the trade deadline and reality is that they could acquire more suitors as injuries or issues pile up.

It really just depends on how deep they want to go.

Not sure why anybody would be against this. We need the talent,  production,  and leadership.  

Anyone who says he doesn't fit,  sorry, impact players always find a way to succeed and exceed.  

Because at 30 (he'll turn 31 on December 5th) he's likely to be past his prime before this team is ready to meaningfully compete all the while it's draining us of cap space and depriving us of draft capital to add younger talent. It's just not a smart move for this organization at this time, but it's the exact type of move we've been making the entire Tepper era where we're more than happy to shoot ourselves in the dick for the future while trying to squeeze 5-6 wins out of a 3-4 win roster. Just brilliant.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.

      And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
