Rex Burkhead

[mrschaney]

I don't know if you guys have even paid any attenstion to this kid, considering where he was drafted, but this kid is going to be a STAR!
I'd like to keep the law firm around for his ball carrying skills in the red zone, but man, Burkhead will take away some jobs. He might not be a week 1 starter, but if he stays healthy, he will be our #1 back at some point, probably by week 6 this season.
I hope they put a sticky by this!

I will assume you have heard of team jack?

He won't even make the team. Make it stop.

logic would dictate that he's better than Bernard Scott. A fifth grade backup would be better than Bernard Scott.

I like it when people take June seriously.

Bengals sign 2 more draft picks

Why is this relevant? We'll sign all of our draft picks -- We'll also sign a handful of undrafted free agents. We'll keep some guys, cut some guys and put some guys on the practice squad.

Signing him now doesn't mean he makes the team. BJGE and Bernard are guarantees. Peerman is pretty likely too. We know they love Scott, and probably keep Pressley. Herron showed ST ability last year. Burkhead has his work cut out for him.

“Just the quickness in line, the ability to stick his foot in the ground and go from Point A to Point B,” Marvin Lewis told reporters after practice Friday. ”Just the things you saw from him on tape. His abilities as a receiver. I think he’ll be a guy also who will really uplift us on special teams and compete to be one of our core guys.”
