The UnderDawg Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 So I saw an article about how this guy wasn't attending workouts, and has been pretty pissed since losing his job. Is this correct? Do you think Cincy will part with him? Is there any other info about him out there? What do you think of him, ect.I only ask this because we're going to be needing more CB's when some are cut in training camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 It's not likely O'Neal is going anywhere this year. He's been "disgruntled" since 2005, when he had a bunch of picks and didn't get a new deal out of them. He skipped the voluntaries last year, same old same old this year. Mandatories? He's there. This is his last year anyhow, he's a UFA in 2009. You're welcome to him.BTW thanks for getting rid of Leigh Bodden. Guy was an absolute Chad-killer.

Deltha, he's not bad. I think he still has was it takes to start somewhere but the guy is a head case. Just one of those players who thinks he's better than he really is. He could be a REALY REALY good nickel on this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnderDawg Posted July 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 ^Yes, thats what Im saying. Hes currently on your roster, and I want him on our roster, lol.@ Hoosier, everyone is a Chad killer, its not that hard. But if you think that move hurt our D you seriously need to get your head checked. Do you honestly think our D could have got any worse from last year? You can only go up from the bottom.

COB Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 @ Hoosier, everyone is a Chad killer, its not that hard.When Chad starts clowning and talking, start clowning and talking back. And keep up a silly, friendly, chatter with him the whole game. He'll destroy you. On the other hand, when Chad tries to engage you in friendly banter, glare at him, spit at him. And knock the crap out of him every chance you get. Chad will disappear. I've watched Pittsburgh do it to him for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPW Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 @ Hoosier, everyone is a Chad killer, its not that hard.Really now ?On the other hand ...I guess your boy "pro bowl" Braylon Edwards is flat out unstoppable ?If it is "not that hard" to stop Chad how does he Keep Racking it Up Year after Year ?Including an Unprecedented Four Straight AFC Yards Titles.The only other player to have won even three straight AFC titles was Jerry Rice.Chad has been to five straight pro bowls ...Think before you post brownie. But if you think that move hurt our D you seriously need to get your head checked.If you think that it didn't hurt your team at corner back you seriously need to get your head checked.You can try to deny it all you want now that he is no longer with the team.But the truth is ... Bodden was the best corner back that the Browns have had in quite some time.He was a big reason that they were able to upset the Bengals in their game at Cleveland last year and that win set the tone for the Browns entire season.Well not for the entire season ...It really only lasted up until they came to Cincinnati for their second meeting and the Bengals slapped them back to reality.But you get my drift ...With Bodden gone now even you would have to admit that the Browns Corner-Backs have got to be rated as Dead Last in the Division.Yea ...Losing Bodden is most certainly going to hurt.^Yes, thats what Im saying. Hes currently on your roster, and I want him on our rosterYou know what ....I have been thinking of that very thing myself, O'Neal would be a good pick up for you and would probably be the Browns number one corner.Now let's see ...The Browns do still have their 2009 First Round Draft Pick right ?

Orange and black fanatic Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 The Browns are hurting in a bad way at corner by their own doing and I agree Deltha would be their No. 1 DB if they were to get him but we all know that isn't going to happen.He is fighting for the No. 3 spot on the Bengals and in a contract year he knows he can get a good payday if he can get a few INTs in nickle packages. Not a lot of stress on his body so teams will be willing to pony up if he shows he is capable. Right now teams probably aren't going to give up what the Bengals would demand in a trade. And never would they trade with the Browns.Browns fans better hope their team stays ultra healthy because if injuries happen to any of their starters, it is goodnight. Even if they do, their offense is going need to score more than last year to succeed, unlikely agaist the AFC North schedule. I personally think they were a flash in the pan last year and fall to the 5-11 range this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Deltha isn't going to get the big coin contract next year regardless. Teams don't give up the big coin for older DB's on their downside, who think they are better than they are. Can he still play ?? Yes... Is he a solid 3rd DB ?? Yes... Will he get the big dollar contract he wants next season from ANY team ?? NO...WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was commenting more on O'Neal's perception of his worth and circumstances than on any real world outcome. In the end, he plays well for the Bengals this year. Then he is likely outta here.

That being said, we need to get younger there and should address this in the draft next year as well.WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAPPYJAQ Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I still thinks that O'Neal is a starting-caliber CB, if he is focused. He will most suredly be focused this year, as a player looking at the prospects of this upcoming season being his last at a big pay-day. I thought he played well last year, in his demotion. Depending on how David Jones and/or Kilmer develop, he could still be here after this year as teams are keeping 3 high paid CB's (I think the Cowboys have 5) these days.Maybe the Bengals can trade O'Neal straight up for Adam "Don't call me Pacman, no mo" Jones.
