Dan2330 Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Sapp to Oakland, unreal. First we watched Vincent walk out of town when he should of been our's and now Sapp. We might as well throw the towel in on free agency. I thought it was bad enough seeing cry baby Dillion on Fox Sports the other night wearing a Raider jersey and bad mouthing the Bengals, but now we watch what should of been our's in Sapp walk to Oakland. In all the years of free agency, Cincy has always laid an egg, and now after chasing down two big names this year, the egg has been laid again. This is getting OLD, FAST.

chrishcovga Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 The Raiders moves in Free Agency means they are serious about making a run at the playoffs again... Al Davis is gonna get Norv Turner everything he wants to field a winning team. --They got Washington and Sapp to plug their porous rush defense that was 31st last year.....so that'll improve.--They still have Buchanon and Woodson,so a Woodson deal will be done probably early July when the 2 sides can begin talking again .--They've all but given their hand away as to what they'll do in the draft, so either Larry Fitzgerald, or Mike Williams will be a raider this year, meaning they'll have Rice,Brown,Porter and possibly the top receiver joining a talented offensive line and a healty Gannon .---If that 3rd rounder deal comes back when the Raiders start dumping salary before the draft, I say we jump on it!

chrishcovga Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Rest assured Billy, I found out this morning from D.J Boyer from Football.com that we'll be getting a 3rd rounder in compensation for losing Takeo Spikes last year..---That makes 4 first day picks, a trade with Dillon should hopefully make it 5. --Also T.J. Houshmanzadeh is rumored to be signing with another team, so we would get an additional 7th as well. ( the anticipation of death is worse than death itself ) with that in mind.... I'm forgetting all this FA talk, and looking forward to April ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know our first is at #17. Where do the rest fall in that order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cover2 Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 The Raiders got Al Davis and we got the Mikey and Katie show.After being in the big show just two years ago, the Raiders are making another run....At this "juncture" we are counting on this draft more than I can ever remember.........it's like TV poker and "we're all In."Who is out there in Free Agency worth having????

CincyMajik8705 Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 The only people I can think of would be the Eagles Guard and Brock Marion...also Darly Garderner should get cut after June 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishcovga Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Billy : our respective picks fall in this order...174980----compensation pick after # 95 (N.E.)113144177209.--Hopefully there will be a Dillon trade and a Kitna Trade, to be honest with you I'm ready to clean house.. Tony Williams,Kevin Kaesviharn,......Hell if we lose Rudi... I wouldn't mind as long as we get good draft picks !!.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BENGALTHEM Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Lets just sign Brock Marion and or Rogers Beckett, and move on. At this point the Bengals should settle for nothing less than a 2nd round pick for Dillion. Dillion is worth that. If we indeed do get an additional 3rd rounder for Spikes, we well have a nice talented young team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGrizzlyBaer Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 i heard a rumour about that, compensation will be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Johnson Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 what happened to ruben brown? We wil gfet Marion or Beckett and the broncos DT come June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishcovga Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Yeah what happened to Ruben Brown... We should be able to sign him and Marion....hopefully this week..----How did the Redskins get Walt Harris and we not even offer him a deal..He's no star, but he's a quality starter !as for Daryl Gardner.. I don't want him.. too old,slow, it's like replacing Oliver Gibson with Oliver Gibson.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I wasn't expecting anything that high, if anything at all. We signed a bunch of FAs last year & that counts against your losses in the goofy comp picks formula. Has the official list of comp picks come out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I USED to think he was worth a second....I know for a fact, theres no way well get that now.....after he showed his ass on TV....why would any GM give a 2nd knowing that the Bengals are in a bind?
