- Paul, Jay and Mo get together to talk through the Bengals Mock Offseason worksheet as it dropped on Wednesday on The Athletic.
They offer up their thoughts on the toughest decisions, trading Trey Hendrickson, re-signing Tee Higgins, investing in the offensive line, going young on defense and the hard edge of cuts required to make it all happen.
Plus, Paul and Jay discuss takeaways from the Al Golden introductory press conference, the Erick All injury news, the Growler Bet takeaway and a challenge for Jay in this week's ARBIES.

Hello Bengals Nation, from Michigan here,hope everyone is safe and healthy out there!?!❤🎉❤
RB 2 Raheim Sanders 6' 230 i like him and later i like Lequint Allen RB Syracuse
Protect the passer, rush the opposing passer, two things that the teams going deep in the playoffs do that the Bengals need to do.
simple but critical
This was OUTSTANDING. Rather than players per se...we are down rb..wr..2Gs...1-2 Des...1-2 DTS..lb..S..cb and maybe TE. Some of these are determined what we do with Gesicki..Moss..Hill..Hubbard...Pratt...Stone...Hilton. Hill-Gesicki seem no brainers and Moss-Stone should probably go. Some those names here or gone will determine the rest. Of course obvious Rankins Trent and Bell arent back. And more obvious that Jamarr Tee and Trey need re-inked and Hubbard restructured. Another team will overpay Ossai and ADG so theyre goners. Move CTB to safety. Lots holes but can be fixed quick..IF IF done right
The number of tabs open on Paul’s computer is giving me anxiety. As I turn to mine with even more open 😂
I love the Jalon Walker pick Jay!!
Where is Dave Nimentz? Is he hanging out with Sheldon Rankins? Nobody ever mentions him anymore although he is immortalized in the opening song.
What they don’t bother to mention on Tee, notwithstanding his talent, is the fact he misses 5 games (1/3 of the season) EACH year. And he generally can’t practice during the week. You can’t pay a guy $23M if he isn’t going to play.
Let's remember y'all we had something like him before playing that same position!!!some people are just hurt prone and can't control that PERIOD😢
You guys overlooked the fact that we can't draft and rookies make errors that cost games!
Looks like in Al Golden’s tenure at UVA, he crossed paths with Cedric Peerman
Difference between Bills and KC re receivers is:
1. Their OC actually schemes receivers open whilst CIN needs their receivers to win every down
2. They actually have a run game that balances the offense
Great pod but thinking the Bengals will get Tee, Chase, Milton and Javon done is pure dreaming.
Kirkland is going to be one of the starter guards. Write it down.
Trading Trey & Tee for 2nd Rnd picks is blasmify!!!
replacing trey with sweat would be like replacing chase with charley jones but giving him chase money
The Chiefs have a better front office that drafted defense and offensive line well and a HOF coach who can adapt and change identities with changing personnel. I don't believe the Bengals can duplicate the Chiefs way because of this in a post-Higgins scenario. Most likely, they get a cheaper FA who isn't as good or a developmental draft pick. The offense suffers. Sign Tee.
Chase isnt playing on his rookie deal in 2025
What’s up with Tanner McLachlan? Dude broke Gronks records at Arizona, with All out for next season, why isn’t there more buzz around McLachlan?
Cincinnati SPORTS TEAMS ARE REALLY JUST CRUSHED!SNAKE BITS PERIOD😢
You guys are the only people in the world I hear consistently saying you are “comfortable” with Cody Ford being a starter next season. He is NOT a starting caliber player at G or OT
Chris Heisey effect: A backup will prove to be a backup when given enough starts.
Tyler Warren, first or second round
We have to keep Tee because we haven’t drafted well. Missing too many pieces to assume we can draft and free agent well in all those positions.
That's precisely why you have to get rid of Tee and convert him into players, caps and/or picks. Burrow, Chase and Higgins just got the Bengals back-to-back 9-7 seasons. That's not good enough. You certainly don't throw and extra 25% of the cap at it to keep it. Sorry, Burrow has to figure out how to do more for less and earn the reputation he has because this team has only ever gone where the defense takes it.
The Big Giant IF, If there ever was an if. I have no faith that the P.O.S. Brown family braintrust will do the right thing and go all in for once in the history of the franchise. They have a golden goose that still has Paychex's stadium on a season ticket waiting list and they always leave holes and try to plug in mid-round picks as starters. Mike Brown did not become a billionaire by winning football games and that is facts.
move CTB to the slot and put DJ Turner outside with Dax Hill
You win super bowl in many ways. Tee higgins is a need!!!!!!!!!
Hope you guy's are doing great!?!
If we pay 3.5mil Javonte Williams, 5mil Mike Gesicki, and 23mil Tee, I’m going to OFF myself… we’ve got to solve the defense (1) and oline (2)…. We need bare minimum investment on all of the offensive skill positions. Go get some dawgs in FA on defense, draft an edge in round 1, a DT in round 2, and finish the draft with Olinemen rd 3-7 .
i see LB differently than you. I dont think you can find a LB cheaper than Pratt who will produce more. Also Karras is still really solid and not that expensive. volson may need to be a back up but under rookie deal hes a good option for depth. Hendrickson is the third most important player on this team. A team with no defense. Letting him go because of his age would be far worse than letting big whit go back in the day. Tee will want too much and end up tagged and traded.
I hate the idea of letting Tee go, but we need to get something for him if we do. Tag and trade or something? Letting him go after letting dj reader go and letting Jessie bates go for absolutely Nothing is just irresponsible.
Someone is gonna try and pay Cody ford. I don’t think he’s restricted but I. Think he will be gone.
Cody Ford is NOT gonna start at LG no way
Its weird how the search for a great linebacker just isn't a thing anymore. Marvin's entire era was trying to find a great linebacker... Odell Thurman, rey maualuga, AJ Nicholson, vontaze burfict, Ahmad Brooks, Keith Rivers....and now it's just like two bland dudes
Also, I like how the Bengals think they know what makes a Superbowl contender and that they think a tight end isn't part of that.... The pats and the chiefs both have hall of fame right ends. And for your Superbowl run and AFC championship run you had two (one each year) reliable right ends
Sounding like Trey won’t be getting a new contract
Believe that the 🐻 CATS are the worst TEAM IN the BIG12 and finally finished in last place PERIOD😭
If Cody Ford is the starting LG for this team I may enter a fugue state. Enough with the Cody Ford agenda, it's ridiculous
Cincinnati 🐻 CATS NEED A REAL COACH PERIOD!!!😢
You guys are playing the poor man’s Brown family game.
The imagination factory. See you in September.
You don't need 2 top tier WR's to win a super bowl......look around.
Trading Trey with his leadership on a young defensive line doesn't make sense.
Mo Milei
🏡 TOWN BOY DIDN'T GET A CHANCE PERIOD😢
I could swear that when they re-signed Frank Pollack as the OL coach that he was also described as "the perfect fit."
Jujutsu is way different then Karate buddy you would not last 1 round 😉 😅
CTB is not a #1 corner.
