I am a guy that is always in favor of giving a guy a second chance. Justin Smith, Leon Hall and Jonathan Joseph were all guilty of criminal behavior while they were Bengals, but no one remembers it because they never got into any other trouble. And I am also wary of people who get red flags based ona lot of "allegations". Remember when we drafted Frostee Rucker and everyone painted him as a violent sexual predator that all the other teams had taken off their draft boards? He turned out to be a model citizen and excellent teammate as far as I ever heard.
But on the other hand there are guys who just keep messing up over and over and over again. Odell thurman messed up multiple times in college before he was kicked off the football team for an entire year. Then after he was allowed back on the team he got suspended again. When we took him in the draft I told everyone he would be trouble. Adam Jones is like that. Even after getting kicked out ofthe league for repeated bad behavior Jones has kept getting int trouble with the Bengals, but for smoe reason he has not gotten another suspension. The charges always get dropped and no one ever gets hurt. But this time I expect him to get a suspension from the league. But I don't think it will be anything big.
I am not really mad at the Bengals that thye have not released him. The only thing that really upsets me is that it seems to show that the team has no real faith in WJ3 and/or Dennard. If both of those guys looked like first round picks I think it would be a lot more likely that Adam would get released.
