Also I don't think Cincy is better...

They lose Perine, Hurst and Bates and replace them with Orlando Brown, Nick Scott and Irv Smith.

Hurst was a replaceable player IMO. Irv Smith shouldn’t really be much different IMO. Also Orlando Brown Jr is an upgrade simply bc he’s an average tackle that is actually on the field. Jonah Williams isn’t good and was never on the field bc he’s a brokedick.

Their draft return is gonna determine a lot obviously. Dax Hill (who I loved as a prospect) was their 1st rd pick last year to replace Bates and Chase Brown this year to replace Perine, so we’ll see.

The Bengals have drafted very well for years so I’m inclined to believe it continues. Myles Murphy is a very good prospect we all really liked and DJ Turner not only has elite athleticism but good production. I think we can all agree that’s probably an upgrade over Eli Apple bc Apple ****ing sucked
