From Ian Rapoport

Source: Rather than releasing him, the #Bengals traded QB Ryan Finley to the #Texans.

I don't care what they got. I'd call that a good deal.

Mikey got a new window crank for his 2005 Malibu, the old one broke a year ago and he was tired of using pliers!

Former Steelers’ WR JuJu Smith-Schuster is returning to the Pittsburgh Steelers, per league source.

He actually took less money to go back to Pittsburgh after Baltimore tried to bring him in. Probably why Baltimore jumped into the Golladay game late. Kind of strange seeing as how they had all but announced he wasn't coming back to Pittsburgh.

That's okay, I hate that guy, Keep him on a team that is easy to hate.

Now that is something we can easily agree on.

Significant roster churn under new staff. Only 2 defensive starters and 3 offensive starters remain from ML. There is definitely no more excuses with this staff. They have their players now, for the most part.

This was a good week to be vacationing in Florida, not just because the weather is crap everywhere else in driving distance (and especially Ohio) but also because I had better things to do than follow free agency too closely. Glad we landed Rieff to salvage things on the o-line front, and the other moves were solid enough.

And, of course, they’re welcome to keep signing guys.

The Bengals deal with Riley Reiff is for one year and is worth $7.5M, with $5.5M guaranteed, per source.

Reiff made clear today that the team told him he’d be playing right tackle. A quality addition for his play and his mentorship along a young OL.


One year only. Another reason Tackle still makes sense in round #1 for us....

John Baines (@johnthebaines)
Including all of Friday's Bengals moves, the team has $21.4M in cap room (assuming Reiff at $7.5M, Thomas $1.1M, Brown $920K). Total of 58 players under contract.

Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo)
He was due $12.2 million in non-guaranteed money. The #Bengals have been nosing around multiple defensive tackles even after signing Larry Okeechobee.

WTF at this Deshaun Watson story. The guy might go from riches to rags in an instant because he had to hire masseuses to fondle instead of the dozens of chicks he could have slept with scott free? What an ass munch.

Reports Golladay signing with Giants

The #Giants visit with FA WR Kenny Golladay has ended for the day, and he’s left the building. But the team remains interested — it went very well — and the two sides will stay in contact.

Good! Maybe the Bengals can work with him now. Dam he's been in NY like 2 whole days now. What's happening?
