bengalboomer7 Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I, personally, will root hard fo the man (Unless he becomes a Steeler) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Just amazing after the accident and being in a coma. I remember doctors saying the guy was lucky to be alive after that one, let alone come back and play football. Here's hoping our defense has the same determination it took for Weathersby to come back and that he gets the chance to realize his dream !!! Good Luck !!!WHODEY !!!

HairOnFire Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 The article claims it's doubful the Bengals will have any interest due to the players they've added since Weathersby was involved in the accident, but you'd have to assume both sides would discuss the matter. Interest in Weathersby around the NFL won't be strong due to the risk, but the Bengals have a relationship with the player, the doctors who treated him, and his family. A courtesy reach-around may be in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJJackson Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 I'm assuming we waived him a long while back and no longer hold his signing rights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasher Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 I think you will all be proved wrong. The guy was a possible 1st/2nd round talent coming out of school before he was shot. The guy is 6'1'' 205lbs for Chriss Sake!Look around at all the teams that have secondary problems. You bring him in just for a look-see through training camp on an incentive laden contract and let him go to work. The BENGALS would be fools not to as well.My bet is the Pats, with all the secondary problems they have had over the years? This has NO risk whatsoever, if he dosen't pan out, you have invested nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasher Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 How sweet would a set of CBs like this look:O'Neal - JamesJoseph - Ratliff - Weathersby (all backing up the Pro Bowlers or playing nickle/dime) good bye Mr Bauman! Instant DEPTH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregCook Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Why can't the Bengals sign him to what he'll get from anyone, the minimum? The Bengals need depth at CB as we all know, Tory is aging, Ratliff doesn't have burner speed. Who doesn't need another big, fast, athletic corner?I say sign him.

Spor_tees Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Why sign Weathersby when we can use that money to sign another WR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 If you are in the vicinity of Dennis Weathersby, do not look up. I predict it will rain pianos and safes in the next chapter of this cartoonish story.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
