Thomas or Freeney?

It could come down to one major addition this offseason from the free agent market. Who should we go after A. Thomas from Balitmore or D. Freeeny from Indy. My vote is Thomas to come in and be that vocal leader on defense. He has the talent but is also a spirtied player that our defense desperatly needs. Hopefully we at least get one of them.

I would take Thomas over Freeny because Thomas can play the run AND the pass, whereas Freeny is just a pass rusher.

I don't even want freeney to visit :P

Dudes a force vs pass but I still don't think hes worth the money he'll be getting

Freeney won't make it out of indy, thomas is are only chance. We also need to consider going after Nate Clements

"cough homer cough"

I'd be happy with thomas but I don't like his age for giving someone a 5+year deal...he'd be short term fix..

Neither, Lance Briggs and Daniel Graham should be our biggest targets. Thomas would be my 3rd option. Freeney is one dimensional and is going to demand way too much money. Briggs is going to demand a lot of coin but he can do a lot more. He can come in and be a leader that our defense desperately needs.

I'd be shocked if the Bengals come even close to signing either of those two. No thanks on Freeney, or our run defense would probably revert to its '03 form. Getting Thomas would be absolutely great, but fans of 30 other teams are saying that.

I'd be shocked if the Bengals pick up ANY high profile free agents. Just look at the history, Marvin-era specifically, and how many high profile free agents we've signed.

But if I'm picking one, let's go after tackle machine London Fletcher. That would definitely fill the need at middle linebacker PLUS he's a little older, so he won't command the large money as others in his respective position.

My top-end-free-agent-to pimp of choice is Asante Samuel, but I agree. Sam Adams might be the biggest free agent acquisition in Bengals history, and that says a lot.

Do you mean impact wise or weight wise?

Aye if gonna go after big contract guy briggs would probbley be the best bet...he's in his 4th year and has plenty of football left...I think having danial graham and Reggie kelly would be perfect.
