Expectations vs. Reality: How Do Bengals View Their BIGGEST Offseason Needs?

Will the Cincinnati Bengals meet the standard set for them this offseason? If they do, it'll mean spending significant money toward top positions in free agency, including pass rusher. Jake Liscow and James Rapien wrap up how they see the big priorities for the Bengals to add talent, then dive into where they're concerned the Bengals might not see it the same way.We discuss whether they'll make a splash to try to find the next Trey Hendrickson at edge rusher, and fears that they may shy away from big numbers in free agency and big needs at linebacker due to how much they invested in Demetrius Knight Jr. and Barrett Carter. Everydayer ClubIf you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
