They weren't gang-buster signings, but they were of higher quality than what the Bengals typically go for, no doubt. That's all I'm saying. We've never seen the Bengals go after guys like Talib, Ward, Sanders and Ware in rapid succession. Heck, leave Ware out and we still haven't seen anything close to that. The only time the Bengals have gone after quality like that is when they let go of a more expensive player and the FA came at a cheaper rate. See Coles/Bryant replacing Housh. See Odom replacing Justin. See Clements replacing JJo. Etc etc. All of those guys were cheaper than the guys they replaced.
On Talib vs Pacman, Talib is no boy scout, but Pacman had a baby sitter. C'mon man...Pacman was on a different level as far as the off field stuff. You know this.
He really wasn't if you read what Talib did.
He straight up shot at someone. The only difference as far as I'm concerned, is Pacman is a better shot
