How do you guys know Kroft will be better? And how do you guys know Barnidge will fall off? Let's just admit that neither of us know, but some of us aren't quite sold on Kroft's potential. 

I don't always ask for aging players to take the position of a young player, so no...I wouldn't "flip the roster". In most cases, I would actually be against taking an aging player over a young one...but when you consider all factors (Eifert's health, his importance to the offense, lack of anyone proven behind him, and that Kroft has been a disappointment), this is one case where I'd consider it.

I don't think it's as crazy an idea as you guys make it seem.

I don't know how you can really judge Kroft as a disappointment.. if you are referring to injury sure.. but since he was injuried most of the year last year.. i don;t see anyway to judge him on such limited play.  Bottom line we have 4 TEs coming back that know the system, all young and all able to improve their game ... and adds no more cost to your team.  Finally if the Bengals were that concerned this group they would have done some.
