I guess I will need a new one to be overly excited about....When he stripped that ball against the Colts and returned for a TD. Dude won the first game of the season, IMHO. I will miss Fej and how announcers butcher his name probably more than Houshmanzadeh.
Hate to disappoint you but how many announcers are going to mispronounce Mike Thomas?

With both Phillips and Wilson available for return duties, I could also see Erickson gone if the Bengals draft a WR.
I was thinking along the same lines. I like Erickson but thought he had a somewhat disappointing year last year and failed to take the opportunities he got. Maybe he has enough goodwill from his Specials Teams work with newly promoted Assistant Head Coach to hang on but they are almost certainly going to draft a WR and he's at the bottom of the roster where they want to get younger and quicker. He'll have a battle on his hands as the likes of Willis, Morgan and whoever they draft will have the allure of untapped potential whereas we know what Erickson is now.
He's a cap saving of $1.8m with $166,668 in dead money.
