Btrester151 Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 I heard the bucs are offering him a 1 year deal worth only 685,000 and a 25,000 signing bonus....umm. think we should make an offer???? Quote
Barbarian Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 My answer is NO, nay, no, no, no. With a young team like the Bengals, Russel would be worse than Dillon as far as diseases go. Russel is big trouble. He gets suspended all the time. Quote
Btrester151 Posted March 30, 2004 Author Report Posted March 30, 2004 But do you think he is gonna f%&k his last chance up? We need some help on the line. Seems like nobody here wants to take a chance. If he f**ks up, release his ass, where else can you find talent like that for 750,000$$$$? Quote
Barbarian Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 For once in my entire life, I'm saying that Mike Brown should save his money and keep the 750 GRRRR (Jim Rome reference).THAT'S A WASTE OF MONEY. Quote
chrishcovga Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 I've said it before, I'll say it again... The player that deserves consideration is ...Norman Hand.-He was recently released by the Seahawks, and remains one of the better run stuffers in the league. He doesn't offer the same criticisms of " druggy " Darrell Russell, and "quitter" Daryl Gardener. Quote
Bobcat Bengal Posted March 30, 2004 Report Posted March 30, 2004 My answer is NO, nay, no, no, no. With a young team like the Bengals, Russel would be worse than Dillon as far as diseases go. Russel is big trouble. He gets suspended all the time. Man if we can look at Gardner, why not Russell? Theyre both f**king up left and right.... Quote

wookie Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Maybe, but if you don't have to pay a lot...and you can get him in with Lewis...then it might be worth a 1 year contract. If the guy turns out to be the a**hole everyone thinks he'll be, then cut him and plug in the #1 pick Vince Wilfork...or Tommie Harris. Quote
BengalsDieHard1 Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Let's save our $$$$ for our 5 first draft day picks..........it's like an early Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Barbarian Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Norman Hand isn't the answer either. The answer lies with the 1st pick of the 2004 draft.Mikey, do us all a favor and use the 1st pick on a DT. Quote

Barbarian Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 Thanks for the props, Billy....BTW, nice avatar. Quote
chrishcovga Posted March 31, 2004 Report Posted March 31, 2004 There is enough talent at the DT spot this year to get a guy probably as deep as the 5th round that could challenge for a starting spot.-- keep this name in mind. Jordan Carstens dt, Iowa ST.But back to the thread... On more than enough threads in this forum, you guys complain about , Corey,Pickens,Mike Brown, Marvins' decision making etc. etc.. - Then when there's a legitimate guy to bring in as a FA, cheaper than Sapp, and probably a better run defender, you say -- "bring in the head cases with Russell and Gardener ! The guy only played well with ML in D.C. because Marvin had to get on him like he did everyone else here last year. Marvin has said before, that he wants players that can self-motivate themselves, not players that have to be "coddled" like children.-- There is absolutely nothing upstairs with Russell. The light isn't even on.-- Gardener is a bum. His best football was more than 4 years ago.Tony Williams' production, doesn't warrant his salary. Langston Moore will be given an opportunity to win his spot,and most likely 2 defensive tackles will be drafted this year.* And as for the first pick, the Best defensive player available should suffice. One of the top 4 should make it to # 17. If not, trade down, and pick up a Corner, and go after D-line and safeties in rounds 2 and 3. Quote
ntpou Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 How many Pro Bowl DT 26 y/o are out there NONE. Except D.Russell we should have did what TB did offer him the MIN. Everyone knows that in order to play for Leewis you play 1st prove yourself then you get the big pay day Quote
