They have spent a bunch of high picks on TE over last 15 years so hard to say don't value it. Just mostly suck at drafting the position.
Gresham, Eifert and Sample since 2010. :roll: And Sample was a panic pick by their own admission.

It's pretty obvious B1 values TE higher then Bengals so he's going to point that out on a constant basis until we get one..

I get it ol' man I'll get off your lawn now..

Why in the world would Jonah thinks his play is going to earn a trade? He can see his own stats and tape, just like every other team can. The compensation likely isnt going to come in terms of high round draft picks. So how about we swap the Broncos straight up Jonah for Perine? :lol:

Hey, Oogie-Boogie is still drawing an NFL paycheck so clearly lack of talent isn't an obstacle. :roll:

Paul Dehner Jr. @pauldehnerjr
The problem with Jonah Williams' value is not that he wouldn't be a solid LT in 2023. He would, that alone is worth something.

It's that he's on a 12.6M fifth-year option and a one-year rental unless somebody is willing to sign him to an extension before he plays a down there.

Looks like Jonah Williams isn't happy about the possibility of moving to Right Guard

From Ian Rappaport
In the wake of the Orlando Brown signing, #Bengals OT Jonah Williams has requested a trade through his agent Ryan Tollner, sources say. Just 25 years old with 47 career starts at LT protecting Joe Burrow, Williams becomes the top tackle available if Cincy is willing to move on.
I have no issue with moving on from him but what is his value? A 2nd rounder?
Been reading and alot of the talking heads think a 3rd.
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.

For what it's worth...

Report: Bengals expected to sign free-agent safety
The Bengals are in a bind at the position after Jessie Bates and Vonn bell left for NFC South teams.

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - The Cincinnati Bengals are expected to finalize a multi-year deal with former L.A. Rams safety Nick Scott, according to multiple outlets including NFL reporter Ari Meirov and Pro Football Focus’ Brad Spielberger.

Scott is a fifth-year player who has been with the Rams since he was drafted in the seventh round in 2019. He has played in 64 games in his career, growing from special teams contributor to eventual playmaker.

The Penn State grad didn’t start an NFL game until January 2022, when starter Jordan Fuller went down in the Rams’ regular-season finale. He started all four playoff games that year, notching his first post-season interception against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round and registering two tackles against the Bengals in the Super Bowl.

Scott started 16 games for the Rams in 2022, registering 86 total tackles (51 solo), five passes defended and two interceptions as well as two forced fumbles.

I guess we have new starting Safety...


Reports: Nick Scott to sign with Bengals
Posted by Charean Williams on March 17, 2023

Free agent safety Nick Scott reached agreement on a three-year, $12 million deal with the Bengals, according to multiple reports.

Scott confirmed it on his social media.

The Rams also had interest in re-signing Scott, who is coming off a career year with 88 tackles, two interceptions and two forced fumbles in 16 starts.

The Rams made Scott a seventh-round draft choice in 2019, and he became a core special teams player with 1,068 special teams snaps in his first three seasons. He played only 109 special teams snaps last season after earning a starting role.

Jessie Bates and Vonn Bell left Cincinnati this offseason, but the Bengals still have Dax Hill, Brandon Wilson, Tycen Anderson and Michael Thomas on the roster at the position.

Bengals hosting free agent TE Foster Moreau.
Played together with Burrow at LSU in 2018.
Backed up Darren Waller with Raiders during his brief NFL career.
To be honest the article teaser said we were hosting a former LSU receiver. My first thought was D.J. Chark. Holy cow what a receiving corp that would be. But, Moreau would be a solid pick up.

Reports are he left without an offer and is now meeting with the Saints.
