HoosierCat Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 We need him. LB is thin. Big test for the backups. Quote
Sea Ray Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Did any trades happen today? Isn't today the trade deadline? Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Yah, I believe so. 4 p.m. today was the deadline. There was some talk about Jared Allen to Seattle but it didn't happen. The Eagles traded Isaac Sopoaga and a sixth-round pick to the Patriots for a fifth-round pick, but that's about it. Quote

TJJackson Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 DeQuin Evans was released/waived/whatever Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Released. My bet is he will take JK's spot on the PS. Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Not that anyone cares, but Aaron "Picasso" Maybin is now a Toronto Argonaut. In possibly more relevant news, the Ravens cut Michael Huff today. Given the state of our secondary he would be an interesting pickup, but everyone, even vets, has to pass through waivers now that we are past the trade deadline. So even if the Bengals put in a claim I would be surprised if he fell to them. Quote

But who knows...maybe another reclamation project for Zim. Quote
HoosierCat Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Mays to IR. dislocated shoulder. damn. Quote
skyline Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Mays to IR. dislocated shoulder. damn.On 2nd thought, perhaps Huff is worth a look. Sure hope Williams is ready to step up and play big. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Mays to IR. damn.Wow, who would have thought we'd ever see the word "damn" used after hearing "Mays to IR" ??At the beginning of the season that word probably would have been "good".Not to wish ill mind you. Quote

I don't like it.Fragel was a project at the RT spot, but a project I really liked them taking part in.I think Fragel has a future in the league, even if only as a backup. Quote
volcom69 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Hope they look at Huff now. Chances are Hawkins will take his spot on the roster. Sucks about Mays Quote

Bollox ! Bollox ! I hate the fact that he's signed elsewhere, and especially with the Browns ! Quote

Just like Maualuga. "Next man up" is getting a real test this season. Quote
volcom69 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 They said bengals have the best depth, well one of the teams. I guess will see what happens.Kerry Rhoads is still out there as well, somebody who could back up or start if needed. Hopefully they do get another safety in here, but who knows. Did they sign anybody for Halls spot yet? Quote

If no teams has signed him by now then no team every will. Quote
essexjohnson Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 We had depth. The D is officially thin now. Scary how much things can change in 2 weeks in the NFL. Actually in one play. Young guys need to step up big time. Quote

I still think they will go after secondary help, just wonder who they will go with. Quote
TJJackson Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 With us down a safety and the Ravens the next team up (after tomorrow night) Huff would be the perfect pickup Quote
ArmyBengal Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 In the way the coaches talk and from what we've seen, I would expect Shawn Williams playing time to increase dramatically.The team believes there is no plug in play type of player to bring in off the street or so they've said.With that thought, Williams would be the logical choice.
