  1. I think this addition has more to do with the punt return game than anything. I know Walter was great on Teams, but if Antonio can break some returns that would be huge! Of course just about anything would be huge compared to last years 31st ranked punt return unit.

    :bengal:

  2. Our current corp of LB is ok. Here me? Just OK. This is the same defense that REEKED against KC and against the Squeelers when it counted. If they were better than that, some of them would have been to a Pro-Bowl or at least an alternate. Some of them may have the potential for a Pro-Bowl at some time in the future, but there is no guarantee. Why would we not seek a bona-fide Pro-Bowl LB. Arrington has been to the Pro-Bowl and is probable to make it back if coached in the right system. Maybe if we sign Arrington, we cant extend Willie. I love Willie and he may have some Pro-Bowls left in him, but if our defense is better we wont need to score as many points on offense.

  3. Hopefully the R7 pick we get will be a Special Teams ace. Thats where the real value of KW came into play. Two questions:

    1. How much cap space does the loss of KW clear up for us? I assume around .5 million.

    2. Is the R7 pick an extra pick provided the league or is it the Texans R7 pick?

    The possible depletion of our WR corp with the probable losses of The Squirrel and The Jailb*tch makes me wonder how our draft strategy changes. Would we take Chad Jackson in R1 if he is available?

  4. Another Sam Adams thread?

    Hey, y'know, I have an idea, why don't we here at bengalszone bid on Sam? Obviously he doesn't have jack going on. Take up a collection and pay Adams to be the 'zone's house "big fatty." I'm thinking an initial offer of 52 steak dinners (1 a week), a daily McDonald's per diem, and a lifetime supply of XXXL "Bengalszone.com Rocks" t-shirts.

    Hey, what is Willie's franchise called: Fatboy? Fat burger? I cant remember but how bout Willie giving up one of his restaurant's for him.

    :D

  5. Harrington will fail, again. Kitna will be starting by week 5 and will finish out the season as the starter for the Lions.

    Totally agree. Harrington cannot get it done. Harrington maybe the starter now, but not for long. Kit will start more games in Detroit than he would have in Cincy.

  6. What a class act. He got more out of his ability than 99% of most professional athletes. You can say he he's no better than 8-8 but he was really not that talented. He just was so hard working and a TEAM player that he was able to lift his play above what one would expect from his physical abilities.

    My favorite Kitna moments: Kitna to Shoebel against the Squeelers to win in the last second, and the NFL telling him he couldnt wear his hats with the cross on it even though he had been wearing them for a long time.(they only started caring about it when Kitna and Bengals started having some success.

    Didnt Kitna throw another pass to beat the Squeelers at home? I cant remember now.

    Any way, I can understand him going to Detroit. He has 100% better chance of starting ahead of Harrington than in front of CP.

    I wish you well in Detroit!

  7. I agree. He's not interested in us. HE'S JUST USING US! Forget about Sam.

    Forget about Grady Jackson. He is not athletic enough for this defense. There is no one out there right now that would be a major upgrade. I know that many are not happy with BRob and JT but they are average and thats about what is left on the DT market. Average.

    :bengal:

  8. Big name FA's are too dangerous because they are usually over-rated, and don't turn out to be what people expect.

    Exactly what I have said before. If Kemoeatu was so great, why would the Ratbirds let him go so easily? I dont think that they even tried to retain him.

    :bengal:
