Analyzing Bengals’ Top Cut Candidates: Who Should Stay and Who Should Go?
The Cincinnati Bengals have to add multiple key pieces to their roster this offseason, but should they cut some of their familiar faces to free up extra cap space?
Get the latest on Orlando Brown Jr., TJ Slaton and other key veterans that may be cut to clear cap room.
Jake Liscow and James Rapien explain why moving on from Brown is risky, why Slaton could return, plus they react to Willie Anderson and Ken Anderson not being voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Hopefully they don’t cut Brown Jr. I don’t think there’s solid LT in free agency to replace him
I'd rather bank on him playing a little better. I just hope they don't start calling his false starts.
I don't think they cut him this year…they would need someone to replace him,and there is not a good enough one out there,right now,probably take a late pick through the draft…!?!😮
James, give me that black Bengals helmet. Pleeeaaassseeee.
Who dey all the way to the Superbowl next year 🎉
I think Brown had a bad year he'll make up for it this year 🎉
No way your cutting Orlando Brown unless you have a bonafide replacement.
513GOMYBENGALS 🐅 Don't believe that anyone on offensive line should become cut PERIOD!Needs too bringing all back from last year production period Guys!It is also the best lines that Joe borrow every HAD!😮
Good WR3 options out there but not a lot of D-Line talent in free agency
#78 not good. He got roasted all year long. Do you guys watch the same football games that I do because he's terrible. He jumps offsides #70 of the time they don't call them because the game would take five hours. He can barely block anyone one on one, God forbid he has to go up against elite talent. He's a bum and could be replaced with anyone and get the same results.
OBJ is the most overrated LT of the past 5 years! Dude has awful feet and forced his way to LT for the money. Then took less to play for the Bungles!! Now he’s getting hurt too..
They just hate the Bengals that's why I love them who dey forever
They need to change the name most valuable player with most wins 😮
I think they should keep him just for the sake of keeping the line together. I also wouldn't go crazy with an extension, hes not very athletic and hes getting older.
They cut him if they think Mims can play LT and they either draft a RT high or sign Braden Smith or Elumeanor if they think they are a cheaper upgrade, otherwise he’s not a cut option
You guys forgot to mention Trey. He 100% should've been DPOY last year but all the 'experts' said he wasn't because the Bengals missed the playoffs. Then please explain how Garrett won it this year.
Talking about Brown is silly. Come on fellas !
The Patriots would have loved to have had Orlando Brown in the Superbowl!
OBJ has lost a step, but the market has gone up, so i don't think he's over paid.
I think you keep him….but you definitely need to draft his replacement this year, or next
The Bengals have NEVER restructured a contract in their history!
If date night Jake got us Orlando, does wedding night Jake get us Maxx?
We should not cut players unless we sign a better replacement. I do not care if Mike Brown is spending more. The last few seasons we have cut veterans then done NOTHING with the money saved from cutting them and replaced them with rookies. Rookies are not good enough. If they do not have a plan to get a BETTER player then keep them.
I'd extend orlando a year like mentioned and get Risner for 2 years. That gives you two years to get their replacements.
These guys think anyone in Bengals front office understands any of this contract and cap stuff but to actually say that they have not only a plan but to say they have a plan B.
