He was more Burfict-like than Burfict was while at LSU (before getting kicked off the team) Luckily Honey Badger got in with a strong 'team first ' Cardinal organization with strong coaches and got turned around. He's a great player (when healthy), a team leader, and by all accounts aggressive, but no longer dirty, which was his rep at LSU. Meanwhile back in Cincinatti, Burfict and Jones are still the same idiots they were in college.
Well I think you can take on 1 or 2 guys with character issues and rehabilitate them. The Bengals have probably taken like a dozen over the years.
What are the odds these guys will all workout?
In 2012 we signed a guy who was sentenced to prison for 3 years. What was the upside of this?
