Huh? What more do you need to see the writing on the wall?
- Player publicly whined and cried about wanting a trade.
- Bengals tested waters at the various FO gatherings
- Player has refused to learn a new position... did the same in college when he refused to move to Center when asked. He does NOT want to be a Rat and will be bad at it.
- Bengals signed Cody Ford and told him he could compete for starting RT.
- Draft has several strong RT candidates that the Bengals have brought in for 1 on 1 visits
- Bengals have a strong history of trading guys who have publically expressed not wanting to be on the team.
Other than the announcement that Williams has been traded, what more evidence do YOU need to see, read, or hear that says the Bengals will keep this guy on the roster by week 1?
Barring an injury to Brown all signs point to gone. At this point, anyone not believe that's the Bengals move/intentions need to offer up some thinga that indicate they will keep him. What is there outnthere? Pollack immediately saying he wanted to coach him? Pffffft! Everything the Bengals have done after that initial comment says he is gone.
Same with Mixon. He is gone. They are just waiting until after the draft. Cutting him now screams "DRAFTING A RUNNINGBACK." The Bengals are going to keep him on the roster to not show their carss and then dump him, too.
