HoosierCat Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Too injury prone for my tastes. But he's an Ohio product and would likely cost no more than league minimum, so it wouldn't surprise me if they brought him in. As long as it doesn't mean they ignore RB in the draft that's fine. I doubt he would make the final cut. But if they bring Wells in and try to sell him as The Answer, I won't be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volcom69 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Yea im going to have to pass on Beanie Wells as well, i think there are better options in FA, or better yet in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 The guy I want in free agency as our veteran FS is this guy/>http://www.houstontexans.com/news/article-2/Free-agent-to-be-Glover-Quin-wants-to-stay-with-Texans/8a22c3fb-a291-41b8-bed9-41267d57417fHe's young, durable, productive (and by the stats, a sure tackler), good size, should not too expensive, great intangibles, would be a serious upgrade for us, and would give us an inside resource on understanding and ergo attacking the Texan's D I know everyone else wants this Goldson fellow but give me the value-priced/steady tackler over the expensive/flashy big hit or big whiff type.I'd still want them to take a speedy zone-coverage safety no later than round 4 even if they do sign this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 No to Wells from me as well. Draft our long term answer to the RB position and be done.I know everyone else wants this Goldson fellow.Nope. Draft our long term answer to the S position and be done.I'd like to go ahead and add OLB to be inserted into the twice used comment above.

ArmyBengal Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 With Harvin looking to get a deal in excess of 10-12 million per year and now reports of the Vikings possibly offering Wallace a contract in the 13 million per year range, I wonder how much head spinning is going in in regards to what it will cost to resign AJ ?? It's not like the price will go down next year.His rookie contract is up AFTER the 2014 season, but they will need to get him done sooner rather than later when the 2013 season is done. I'm sure that's a big part of the reason they want to push some of the excess cap money from this year to next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 I think the FO's head has been whirling since Megatron got that $132 million deal. I said then that there's no way the Bengals cough up that much coin for Green. I hope I'm wrong, but its very easy to see them riding out his rookie deal, then franchising him for the 2015 season. And maybe again for 2016. Even if it costs, say, $35 million combined for those two tags, that's still a big savings. But at least we get 3 or 4 more years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volcom69 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Sounds like the lions won't let him leave without a deal, so my guess is he is going to get big money, which I don't see the bengals doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volcom69 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Why would they go after another down hill runner when they have BJGE? They need a speedy back who can catch the ball and make guys miss in the open field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
