2 firsts plus extra picks since no impact players to go back to the Bengals and 38-40m per season. 

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

[La Pantera]

I don’t see Trey playing OLB. We’d have to run a lot more even fronts. So basically change our base front for one player?? Doesn’t really make sense.

For us it's stupid. He's cheapish right now and we have not drafted a center in years. We had the chance but took an injured RB. It would be stupid to make what is already looking shaky but not terrible a terrible situation and then back ourselves into a situation of being desperate for a center next year and probably drafting a bust. I mean it's just how this team operates unfortunately.

I mean, he is just on a one year deal. 

This is another BC scenario where we wee overvaluing him as an NFL player versus his worth to our roster specifically.

Also, why would the Bengals want a backup player? That's not the impact they are looking for, more likely than not.

has it been reported in joint practices that the QB pressure is lacking? Looks like someone might be getting desperate.

Yeah I don't know why they would want Wonnum or Mays regardless.

As others have said. The cupboards here are bare. And we aren't about to give up one of the very few legit young players we have.

The fact our name is even in this takes me back to hard times with Fitterer.

I mean, a lot of pass rushers remain effective through their mid-late 30s.  The age doesn’t concern me as much as the fit and the timing.

His style also is one that ages well, more power than finesse....  

[PleaseCutStewart]

Isn't he a 4-3 end? Not confident, but thought he was

I mean the only reasonable pieces we could potentially offer are Ikey, Lewis, Hunt, D. Brown and probably Horn. Maybe Dowdle as a pot sweetner? 

But why would we literally trade any of those guys?

The defense is going to suck. That mold was cast like fuging 2 years ago. If this is desperation over lack of pass rush....well.....tough poo. Figure it out next offseason.

Am I wrong or did I read somewhere before he wanted 31M per?

Yeah, I think the Bengals offered him like upper 20s and he wanted more + more of the contract guaranteed.

I would love to have him, but it would be a colossal mistake IMO. Even if we got him for say only a 2nd round draft pick 

[KillerKat]

We dont need to be breaking the bank with anyone on D when Evero is getting fired midseason.

Probably take Woonum, Zavala and a 2nd

Against Tampa? No. 

Tampa is a mediocre team that has ruled poo mountain aka the NFC South. Barely avoided a split with Carolina last year and got swept by the Falcons. They just lost their hot shot OC that they were desperate to keep. They offered to make him the highest paid coordinator in the league for a reason and every Bucs fan I know would have helped Bowles pack if it meant promoting Coen. The Bengals pass rush is bottom of the league without Hendrickson and good with him. He moves the needle there and he would move the needle here. If this team is too chickenshit to try to compete with mighty Tampa then they should be relegated to the UFL

I am not sure a rotational DE, a backup OL and a 2nd is gonna do it.

Bengals have fug all leverage and he's 31 years old. Plus hes demanding a mega contract.
