Do the Bengals have to spend within X amount of the cap next year or do they have another year before that kicks in? Micheal Griffen and Ben Grubbs would look really good in stripes next year.

 

[Tubbs1518]

I'd rather have Landry personally because Griffen is pretty inconsistent from year to year. Grubbs I would love. Also would love to see one of those top 4 RB's here.

 

[DanBengalfan]

If Simpson keeps dropping passes he's not going to get re-signed here.

peyton hillis is wearing down... he'll probably be here.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis might get a starting job somewhere.

 

[Tubbs1518]

Hillis is having the Madden curse. I think he will be fine next year. I also don't know if he wants to play in CLE so why put more tred on the tires this year?

 

[Servo]

If they just sign a good interior O-lineman (ie Grubbs) I'll be happy. Anything else will just be gravy. I'm assuming that we'll keep alot of our guys (ie Sims, Simpson if he's not in prison) and spend alot of money there. Not a fan of investing any big $$$ in a RB. Much rather just see them draft one early (ideally richardson in the first).

 

[Tubbs1518]

No chance Richardson falls to us. 0. I'd rather just go ahead and get a RB in FA and use those 1st rounders on OG, OLB, CB, S. Any of those 4.

I believe they have one more year.

 

[Tubbs1518]

They are free agents after this year.

Tyvon Branch
Michael Griffen[/QUOTE]

 

[Tubbs1518]

I'm thinking McClain as a RB not FB. Dude is a great short yard runner and didn't he have close to 1000 yards in Bmore one year?

 

[jwil007]

he did

 

[CrashDavisSports]

I would give up a 1st and a secondary pick for Arian Foster, and then I would throw a decent amount at Mike Wallace from Pittsburgh in FA if their teams do not resign them long term.

That would be sick if we could field a competent OL.

QB Dalton
RB Foster
WR Green
WR Wallace
WR Shipley
TE Gresham

That is a set of scary f'n skill set players. Weakest thing on that list is Dalton's arm, and that does not concern me at this point.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis - resigned
Arian Foster (restricted)
Michael Bush- can be had and would be an animal here
Le'Ron McClain

WR:

Reggie Wayne - resigned
Wes Welker - resigned
Vincent Jackson - too expensive
DeSean Jackson - ''
Dwayne Bowe - would be a perfect fit but probably too expensive
Marques Colston
Steve Johnson - franchised
Mike Wallace - franchised

OG:

Carl Nicks
Ben Grubbs - just what a doctor ordered but doubt Ravens let him walk
Jeremy Zuttah

CB:

Brent Grimes
Carlos Rogers
Cortland Finnigan - make it happen
Brandon Carr
Tracy Porter
Marcus Trufant
Terrell Thomas

S:

Laron Landry - no way he signs here
Tyvon Branch
Michael Griffen - can be had at the right price

With one more year till the cap threshold must be met, not getting my hopes up

 

[DanBengalfan]

I really think our second rounder will be a rb next season.

hopefully he doesn't get injured in training camp or some gayness.

 

[vancelot23]

Michael Bush is just punishing when he runs. Every collision with him just sounds painful. Pittsburgh isn't letting mike Wallace go. The only guy we would have a shot at is Wayne.

Lamar Miller... from Tha U!

 

[Servo]

Lamar Miller... from Tha U!

I like Miller too. I think that unless Oakland goes in the tank (or we do) RIchardson wont be there. Could very well see Miller winding up in stripes and wouldnt have any issue with that...

 

[Cincyfan78]

DAAAAAAAAAA

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Restore the Roar]

I'd take Peyton Hillis any day.
