Shayne Graham is "The Most Interesting Man in the World".

Lamest. Commercials. Ever.

Possibly true, but I'd bet more people are drinking Dos Equis. Thinking more about it, maybe Bernard Scott gets the "Most Interesting Man" nod...at least in BengalWorld

Shayne-O-Matic will earn about 80-100K per FG next year. I guess it's a better ROI than Utecht's 187K per catch, but who's calculating? ;)

Probably. There's no accounting for taste.

Shayne deserves every dime. Anyone believing otherwise is a nincompoop.

Say what you want about him, but the guy is without a doubt one of the elite kickers in football.

Ok, Ok. Fantasy football.

If there was a GM in place, we wouldn't have to Franchis the Kicker!!! Yes, I know the Patriots did it a few years back, but they also sent him packing 2 years later despite his success rate, because they found a college free agent kicker that could do Vinatieris' job, just as well.

You guys made the stink about not getting any competition for Huber, where's Shayne Grahams' competition...?? ;)

It's extremely hard to compete with one of the top five kickers in the league, don't you think Chris?

The franchise tag is (now) simply a tool for management to keep a player. Thanks to the growth of the cap, it has long since lost its original intent as a way to handicap a team if they wanted to keep a key player.

As it turned out, the Bengals did the right thing franchising Graham. They rolled the dice and won on Benson, and franchising Housh would only have created Chad v2.0.

Props to Mikey. :boxing:
