I actually like Glasgow. Good run stopper, just hope Billings becomes who i thought he would be.

Definately a very low percentage that is for sure.

Yeah, I have done a couple things over the years about how much more it cost the Bengals in picks and dollars to try to replace JJo than if they had just given him the guaranteed money that he wanted.

Pretty sure I did one for Housh, too.

As for the OP, I have done a couple posts in the past listing all of the Bengals comp picks under Lewis. It is an ugly ugly list. It has never paid off for the Bengals.

I remember some of those posts. Sad reality is what they were.

Yes and those players like Housh, J-Joe and Whit were hell of players for us.

People always say MB is loyal to a fault, not these times.
