Oh, I don't know.  He Pacman-ed enough times in Cincinnati to have kept the nickname alive.

This. I respected his wishes until he punched that girl in the face in front of the bar.

Then there's the arrest last off season with the infamous video. That was some high quality PR for the franchise.

That was the spitting on the cop yelling at a nurse or someone... Right?

While the press was bad it always is for us or there is no press.  I think one got dropped and the other reduced to basically nothing.

If you just look at what he was actually charged with while here... Hes been pretty good as a Bengal compared to earlier in his career.

True, he wasn't the non stop moron here that he was before he got here.  But I believe his story here is over and should be.

If the Bengals can get him at a bargain basement price with no guarantee of a roster spot, I see no harm. He might still be an asset if he would except a backup role as safety/corner or punt returner if he could earn a spot in training camp.

I reallly don't like our CB detph after WJIII,

Oh, you mean re-sign Adam Jones which will send the team's highest paid corner, Kirkpatrick, to the bench?

I'm for it.

I believe Kirkpatrick would be really good if all he had to do was be the 4th corner on the team and occassionally guard the other team's 4th best receiver. Guarding AB, he's a long ways from Adam Jones and Willie Jackson.

I'd only do it if I saw this year as THE YEAR, and if none of the other guys you listed compared to Pac's return abilities.  

Kind of depends how the new Return rules work out, but getting big Returns in the Kicking game can be huge
in games in changing field position. Think it would be worth it if the other Returners are not cutting it.

So true, ST's are a big deal around here.

Jones will be out there until there is an injury in camp somewhere. I think if 21, 22 or 27 go down early the Bengals will call him right away. But I don't think if, say, Russell gets hurt, they'll call him right away. He can play, I think, but not starting snaps. And frankly, with the new rules, his kick return ability isn't enough to get someone to sign him either. He literally can go anywhere as soon as there is a corner injury.

Great insight.

Think he is one of the best punt returners in game but believe he is an average kickoff returner.

Stats may show differently  have never checked, just my observation 

Plus we all know he will be back if no other team signs him. He is MB favorite.

Was not the first woman he punched. You can forgive if people try to improve but he never veered from his punk ways. 

Plus was a big factor in the Steeler playoff melt down. In fact he was the nail that sealed it.

For me it's a NO.
It's time to move on and give the young guys a chance, otherwise there was no point in getting the young guys in.
