Keep grasping for straws.
Neither completely know what they are doing.
Its all a dice game.

Lafell has 23 catches on 37 targets and 3 TDs.. Marvin has 29 catches on 47 targets and 4 TDS.. Jones has a clear edge in YPC but again for the money difference and Lafell being a true #2... looks like to me the Bengals have gotten the better of the deal so far.
As for Nelson, i agree it hurts losing him but again we can;t sign everyone but his impact is missed
We had the money to retain Nelson. That was a gamble that didn't pay off.
