HoosierCat Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 It's actually striking, at least to me, how little daylight there is between the two. Russell wouldn't be much, if any, of an upgrade based on his past performance. Now, if he has actually gotten his sht together, that might not be the case. But I see no pressing need to go knocking on his door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Knocking on Russell's door, as you put it Hoosier, is something I could see previous Bengal teams doing.When I view our current roster and don't see the issues of the past, I rather enjoy myself.I have no desire to bring in someone like Russell. The media attention alone isn't worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishbengal Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 It's actually striking, at least to me, how little daylight there is between the two.That's exactly what I thought, nothing really between the two players ...... the only difference being Russells experience is higher, but weigh that up against possible negatives and is it such an attractive proposition???

jjakq27 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Russell and Big Dre fussing around the buffet table might get ugly. I don't think we need that headache, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierCat Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 FWIW I see that the team let their official board mod Denny into OTAs again this year. He picked up a few tidbits, nothing really new, but does say they aren't happy with the backup QB situation and could make a move.../>http://boards.bengals.com/showthread.php?t=113067 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingwilly Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 So, if not happy with QBs, why did they not take one in the draft....Zac Dysert was there in r7, some thought he might go as high as r3.... There will be some vet arms out there. Better have a look at some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yeah, I wouldn't complain about Moore at the LG spot either, but it would surprise the hell out of me given his age.Funny how there hasn't been any talk about Rhodes given the talk of his man friend.

HoosierCat Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Mikell might be worth a sniff. I mean, we're looking at a third-round rook v. Taylor Mays so it isn't like we're stacked.Idonije would be an upgrade to Geathers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
