Bleav in Cincy

Matt and Willie Know the AFC North

There has been a lot of negativity in this fan base recently, and I get it. Why can’t they just sign Trey Hendrickson already? What is going on with their first round pick? Why haven’t they signed a top-end guard?

I get it! Believe me I get it.

Let me tell you a little something, the grass isn’t always greener, and if you take a look around the AFC North, that is what you’ll find.

So, the Bengals haven’t been as active. Neither have the Ravens or the Browns. In his 2000 classic On the Grind Nelly said “All money ain’t good money, but no money ain’t good.” While the aforementioned teams may be making “no acquisitions,” not all acquisitions. are good acquisitions. *cough Aaron Rodgers

The Steelers are usually very consistent. They have a way of team building that is pretty consistent, but they seem to have lost their way.

They just recently made a “Blockbuster trade.” I capitalized “Blockbuster,” because I assume the reason they gave the trade that title is that it would have been much more relevant years ago. They may have acquired Jalen Ramsey, but Minkah Fitzpatrick was the best player in that trade and he’s out the door. They brought in DK Metcalf, who is an upgrade on George Pickins for obvious reasons, but it would have been a much better idea to pair him with Pickins.

The Ravens haven’t done much this offseason and have a mix of aging vets and big projections in key places. Jaire Alexander is a name, but he has not been able to stay healthy. DeAndre Hopkins is not the man he was in Houston. Did they really move the needle at all?

The Browns are frankly confusing. Seriously, what are they trying to do? The drafted two quarterbacks in the mid rounds. They spent a bunch of money on a guard they probably don’t need. They made some good picks, but it almost seems like they are building depth for the future and not trying to win games now.

I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to feel a little better.
