ESPN on the Bengals 2026 offseason: “Cincinnati failed in its attempt to fix the defense. After a rough 2024 season, it actually got worse in 2025. The Bengals finished 27th in points allowed per drive (down from 26th the previous season). The Bengals need playmakers at each level, and defensive coordinator Al Golden needs to continue developing ascending players, such as defensive end Myles Murphy and cornerback DJ Turner II. Cincinnati cannot be passive in free agency when it comes to adding impactful players to the defense.”

Bengals at least have to sign 4 free agents, then nail the 10th pick in the draft
Make a decision on Hendrickson early don’t drag it out . I think it hurts the morale of the team when the decision on him is aggravating to the players.
BS
Who dey all the way to the Superbowl next year 🎉
Downs are the best defense players available
3
I think the most important thing is to carry the momentum this year into next year. The defense was looking solid, the oline is looking solid and besides the ravens game abd browns game offense is looking insane. To be fair weve had nothing to play for weeks with multiple recievers out at times and burrow still injured.
The rank is perfect, based on last year we deserve to be in the 20s let's go under the radar get in the playoffs and get to the bowl!!! #WHODEY
If Downs is not available at #10 I'd take Delane I can also see the Bengals picking up Devin Bush in FA
Look, I love Trey…..but a $26m franchise tag seems crazy at his age and off an injury. Let him go and go get a younger guy.
Tag Hendrickson then trade him with some picks for Crosby
Less than ZERO chance to get Crosby. And the Bengals should not pay that much for 1 player. Nothing to it.
I want 2 Veteran LBs. I don't care about age. I want experience and tackling. Cook at safety from the Chiefs. and a Valuable CB.
They're gonna go all the way next season.
Im still on #SeatStike2026
We will be much worse than 16. Until leadership changes, expect the same or worse results.

Way to early.
They will not add talent unless they draft it
Draft Caleb Downs and Caden Curry, trade Orlando Brown and Sign Riq Woolen.
We need a dominant pass rushing DT, more impact from Edge rushing, less big plays, and better tackling.
Perfect (blank)
Only thing on offense that needs fixed is the O line. Besides that defense defense defense 💪🏻💯‼️🎯
Either Brisker/Cook at safety, Mccoy/Downs as Db, Lloyd/Davis as Lbs, but Crosby had to be number one priority. This is aligned for the bengals to go all the way including our very easy schedule. And hopefully we have Erick All Jr. back so him and Mike can be another dual threat on offense.
Steelers fan seeing what you had to say
After an 0-5 start Bengals will finally start putting some wins together and come to within one game of making the playoffs,
Caleb Downs
Cheapa** own Mike Brown will take 10 Million of that cap money and roll it into next year like he did last year even though we had multiple holes on defense to fix. So forget "55 million" more like 45 million.
