I'm thinking once Bengals make roster cuts, after preseason game 3. The money picture will be more clear to front office. Also this defense in preseason is showing they have no pass rush without Hendrickson. So after preseason and the NFL teams make their cuts, I feel this soap opera with Hendrickson ends, and with both Hendrickson and Stewart and the 2nd round LB, Coach Golden molds a defense that gets Burrow, Chase, Higgins back to SUPER BOWL.
The $$ is crystal clear now. None of the fringe roster guys are gonna impact the cap much. I. Williams v Cochran v Grandy v Brightwell v C. Johnson v Giles-Harris v Heyward v Njongmeta v Bryan. Those guys all make about the same.
As for Trey, the APY stuff, reportedly, is not the issue, only the guarantees. So this year's cap should be known for him.
Now, if we are still thinking of making a FA move (Risner, Simmons, Scherff, etc.) then there could be cap impact.
