Jefferson to Bengals rumors

In the end, if he doesn't want to play here, do as they did with Carson Palmer and get him to another team.  When Chad Ocho Cinco Johnson was on ESPN trying to force Bengals into trading him, I always thought Mike Brown should have traded him that day. What is the point of pulling the slave owner stuff, and having a team of players that don't want to be here, and cause Bengals to be Last Place doormats again. ...Higgins wants out, and I say get rid of him.  

Also, I have seen players who thought  they were too good to play in Cincinnati.  Often they go to other teams and never do anything.  Carl Pickins stands out to me on this. I see no point in having players who don't want to be here. That is a good way to turn this Super Bowl team back into Last Place Bungles joke of the NFL.

So on this, I'm for getting rid of Higgins now.  I just don't like trading away 2 years of first round draft picks and trading away the future, the Browns proved that is a mistake. On that fans thought trading all those picks for Watson was great for Browns. No, it was great for Houston Texans.

He does not want out of Cincinnati as in he doesn’t like it here. And your slavery take is weird unless slaves made a lot more than I was taught.
