Maybe he can be a receiver cuz he sure ain't a QB.

He was probably given a last option.

Ug

There are actual receivers that I'd like to see take those practice reps cause they need them to develop.

I doubt if it was with the first team.  And look on the bright side--at least he wasn't getting QB reps.

Didn't he break his arm playing WR at practice a few years ago?

Yep....

MJ may have been the sleeper pick for the Bengals this past draft, but I still want to see what Anderson can do because I heard he is quite competent at RB when healthy:

That dude half-assed it and whiffed on a block twice, where his man ended up making the tackle.


























































































and Andy Dalton didn't have a DAMN thing to do with it!!

Still a good place for their line stats and the fact that they actually count drops (I don't think a single free site does), but that's not worth the outrageous price.

I always liked the drops and air yards. Then they bitched out and started charging an arm and a leg and i sent them a nice (not nice) email to which they responded. lol

But, but this is Kent Dorfman, he's a legacy.  Don't you remember his brother, Fred Dorfman?  We gotta let him in..

So, no irony.  Just a distaste for false claims.

That's exactly what i was doing in the PS thread, you ****ing hypocrite.

I dunno if MJ was a sleeper pick. I think he was a bit unexpected because the Bengals had Boling (who hadn't mentioned retirement yet), Miller, Westerman, Redmond, and Hopkins. However, they only two OTs in Glenn and Hart with no backups. The expectations by many were the Bengals were going to draft two OTs, not an OT and a G.

If this means Cody Core doesn't make the team I am all for it!

Not sure if posted, but looks like Tate is gaining momentum.  Nice grab in the back of the end zone, from yesterday.

I imagine they are or will be monitoring other cuts and grab an OT or two.  At least I hope that is the plan.  With Perkins gone, they only have Evans, Dugas and Smith.  Smith is okay but I don't feel comfortable with the other two.

Evans couldn't get in anybody's way but his own.

They could just go ahead and replace Core and Malone with Tate and Morgan and I would consider it an upgrade.
