Travis Dorsch and Eric Bieniemy.
Had a friend who thought announcers called him "Eric The Enemy," and after watching several games said, "Wow - that guy must be a real badass. How do you get a nickname like that anyway?"
Robert Sands, Kenny Irons are some more recent ones.
Sands was supposed to be our rangy, midfield safety that we eventually found in Reggie Nelson and Kenny Irons (and subsequently Bernard Scott) were supposed to be our home run hitters at RB after we found out Perry wasn't going anywhere, now we have Gio.

The "Throwin' Samoan".....
Michael Basnight, the poetry writing running back.
Lance Gunn. I win. I only remember because there was some loud mouthed sports guy on some now defunct sports station who wouldn't shut up about him or how awesome his name was during training camp.
And sadly Reinard Wilson. 1st round and as obscure as they come.
Tom Tumulty and David "Snoop" Dunn.
Very nice. Keep 'em comin' folks.
I'm going to open it up for any and all names now.
Here's a few from me: John Copeland, Brandon Ghee, James Francis
Not sure if some of these count:
Tremain Mack, Armon Binns, Dez Briscoe, Brandon Bennett, Harold Green

I'm not sure you could call James Francis obscure.....he was actually pretty good on some really bad teams....and Harold Green did have one pretty good season....but the rest for sure.
How about Truck 101's all time fave, Ryan Whalen?
Pete Koch is the only Bengal to ever tell Clint Eastwood he was going to "tear his head off and sheit down his throat".....
Reggie McNeal, Brian Milne.

Forgotten Bengal great Larry Kinnebrew.
Too easy to pick obscure names no one has ever heard of. I am going with a couple of guys who were actually good players but never got much credit while playing for the Bengals during the "lost decade"
James Francis and Alfred Williams.
Both first round picks from the early 90's.

I saw Kinnebrew play in college when I was at Tenn-Chatt.
