I'm not understanding the Bengals......

In addition to cutting him, they have lost several more salaries off the books during FA, yet haven't signed anyone new (that backup center from yesterday doesn't really count). If they saved $3 million, where did it go?

Finally, I have a problem with just cutting him. I'm sure someone would have given us at least a second-day draft pick for him.

Simmons was a well respected player. Personally, I hated to see him go as well. But what we have to remember is the NFL is a business and this was pure and simple a business move. As far as to where the $3 million went....I'm guessing that will go into the rookie pool thats used to sign their draft choices.
