Free agent signing might help Bengals

If the Cincinnati Bengals really want to make a statement, they'll land Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth in free agency.
Not try to get him. Get him. But it won't happen; that's not how the Bengals do business.
We heard it again from head coach Marvin Lewis last week.
"Free agency, that's not gonna fix all," Lewis said. "That's not gonna fix any team. When you inherit those guys or bring those guys on, there comes a period of time where there's some reversion back to what they know and it may be a little different than what you're teaching at that point.
Last time I checked, Reggie White — the greatest free-agent signing in NFL history — sure helped the Packers. And Roosevelt Colvin, Rodney Harrison, Junior Seau, Donte' Stallworth and Adalius Thomas have contributed mightily to New England.



A free agent signing might help the Bengals ... a lot

Re: Free agent signing might help Bengals

Haynesworth is going to be one of the most highly sought after free agents on the market, and the Bengals are notoriously tight-fisted. It'll never happen.

The author goes on to point out that past Bengal drafts didnt turn out so hot.
Marvin Lewis being a little dense here or not?
