Why would the Bengals reach for three wideouts when they had more pressing needs?

All I can say is "In Marvin We Trust"

i think maybe Jon Kitna will surprise a lot of people in Detroit. there is a lot of talent at wide receiver there, and kitna looked pretty darn good in cincy before giving way to Palmer. now, with that said, the exact same thing can be said for McCown who left Arizona, also for Detroit. which ever of these two guys get the starting job in Detroit will post good numbers, not wins, mind you, but good stats.

He is an owner. It's his team. He is VERY involved, but some would argue(and they would be right) that he would be more successful, and liked, if he gave his coaches more power, much like Mike Brown has given Marvin Lewis in Cincinnati. Used to me Mike Brown ran the show completely and that's why the Bengals stunk for so long. Hire a new guy, earn his trust and then let him run the organization more than the average coach, thats what I think Jerry Jones should do. Parcells is a great coach.

Could be.  Who is this Chris Shelton who has been pounding the ball with such authority?  I'd love to see the old Bengals back in contention in the American League.

They might trade the pick because they have many needs to improve the team, all of which contributed to their 2-14 season. they might trade it for offensive line players, or maybe some defensive players, they are deperately in need of good players in many positions, though, that's for sure.

Because of the draft system, the worst teams have the rights to the best players.  This is to encourage parity and better competition.  The NFL doesn't want eternal bottom dwellers, so teams like the Cardinals and Lions get the opportunity to draft fine young promising players like Leinert every year until they improve.\n\nActually, Leinert dropped all the way to the 10th pick overall, so several NFL teams felt there were better players available. Or perhaps they were unwilling to pay Matt the big bucks they thought he would ask for.

I AM A FRIGGIN FOOTBALL GOD BOW TO ME. (LOL) seriously thoughj a tight end has to run fast and be able to be nimble on their feet. They have to be able to cover their man.

Dallas did many things to address their offseason needs.  1. Flozell Adams needs to stay healthy at that all important left tackle position.  2.  They picked up a 4th year player from the Lions in Kyle Kosier to replace the departed Larry Allen.  3. They added Jacksonville linebacker and sure tackler Akin Ayodele.  4.  The kicking game has been strengthened by adding the most accurate NFl Kicker of all time in Mike Vanderjagt.  5. They added a talented and very strong wide reciever in Terrel Owens.  Owens should be on his best behavior for the first year as a Cowboy.  6. Dallas re-signed Keith Davis to help play some safety and help in run support, he is also their best special teams player.  7 Dallas drafted Bobby Carpenter who is a pretty big linebacker and a very smart football player.  His first year he will see limited action, but next year he should be a solid addition to the defense.  8. They drafted Anthony Fasano at Tight End in the 2nd round because he is a good athlete and can deliver some pop when he blocks.  Dallas will be running a 2 tight end, single back offense this year on most downs.  9. Dallas also drafted Skyler Green who is a terrific kick returner from LSU in the 4th round and will be on the special teams lineup right away.  10. They still need to address their short yardage game with a back that can pick up those tough 3 yards to go downs.  11. Dallas will be monitoring Rob Petiti closely this year at Right Tackle to make sure he is truly a starter caliber player or a valuable backup player that provides depth for the offensive line.  12.  Dallas needs to find a longsnapper that is consistent so that Vanderjagt doesn't miss a game winning kick becuase the snapper and holder didn't perform.  13.  Dallas should finish 11-5 this year if the young defense makes tackles and forces a lot of third and longs.  14.  The offense needs to minimize turnovers, don't make costly penalties out of frustration, just execute the offense with ball control and take advantage of aggressive defenses.  This means getting the ball to the hot read and setting up the blocking so the ball carrier can make the first guy miss.  15. Lastly, the secondary CANNOT get beat on deep balls on crucial plays.  Santana Moss exploited a weakness for the whole league to take advantage of which resulted in costly big plays at key turning points in the game.  Dallas must do a better job and force teams to make a perfect pass to beat you.  Not an average one because the reciever has a two step lead on a deep route.  Dallas is talented, but only hard work and preparation will determine how far they go this year!

Because when he came out of college, he was a tweener.  Too slow for a WR and too small for TE, so they listed him as both.  Since they set the positions before the season starts, they had no idea which position he would play.  And anyway, how many 7th round rookies make ANY impact in the NFL???  Even guys up top like Holmes and Jackson aren't close to this guy so far this year!!!

Obviously it is because Alan Trammell just played the game. He didn't say he was the greatest, he didn't flaunt his talent. He just did his job and apparently that just isn't enough. The other problem is that he is a Tiger. Tigers have problems getting in. But Go Tigers anyway.

It's all up to Charlie Fyre, but anything is possibly just look at the Bengals they had a big drought from getting to the playoffs, but with Carson Palmer they went, so the Browns, I believe they have a good shot to get in to the playoffs, if not this year, then it will be next year.

Representing the AFC  Cincinatti Bengals. becuase they got Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson a nice hook up right there. they also have T.J. Housmanzadeh another stadout wide reciver. Rudi johnson has a average of 5.2 yds currenly best in nfl. Benglas have probowls defenisve players like odell thurman, Tory James, David Pollack, Deltha O'Neal, John Thornton, Sam Adams,  and Dexter Jackson. The Bengals have a tough Schedule ahead, and dropping down to .500 ain't good, but except Marvin Edwards to have his team bouce back into the playoffs and upsetting the Colts to play in the Superbowl. \nRepresenting The NFC The Chicago Bears. yes the Bears lost to a 1-6 Miami Dolphins, but Rex Grossman has still not completed a season, which still kind of makes him a rookie. But he's still learing and he's going to make a lot of mistakes, this next three game span will be the real test for Grossman on the road as they face in order @Giants, @Jets, And @ Patriots, and don't forget another MNF game @ St.Louis, if Grossman plays well during those tough games then yes bears will go to the SuperBowl. The Bears defense is really fast, thier entire  D Line can Run A 5.2 40 which is really fast, linebackers Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher will definetly contribute to the defensive battle.Their secondary better shape up though , i see them always playing wide outs with soft cushin, and eventually end up wide open. But mike brown wil talk to those guys about that. The bears always play good with a 10 + lead, that better stop now, cuz their gonna need to play amazing later., But I pick them cuz thier the overall best the bears defeat the bengals in the Superbowl XLI.

If a wide receiver like Sinorice Moss or Santonio Holmes falls into their hands they should choose them to be a no. 2 but they would be better off taking a project in a later round like Michael Robinson or Brad Smith and convert them into wide receiver. The other choices are a RB like Laurence Maroney or a S like Ko Simpson or Jason Allen

Good queston, TJ is a very-good player and like Chris Perry of the Bengals they both get overshawoed by the teams premire RB. If you remember, The Readskins traded Champ Bailey and a second round pick to get Clinton Portis and if they don't use him and just use TJ than they feel like dumbasses for giving a pro bowler for a second round worthless RB, sure he can rush for a 1,000yds. but I doubt Portis well ever rush for 1620Yds and have like 20 TDs.

They obviously went with a need pick. Their DL last year was pretty bad. Not picking Bush means that Domanick Davis IS healthy. It's a tough call, would you take Bruce Smith or Marshall Faulk in their prime? I'm just glad Houston didn't take Bush cuz I wanna see Reggie play for many, many years. Houston now has Kubiak which has installed Denver's offense. Denver's offense is harsh on RBs. RBs don't usually last there.

The Houston Texans said last week that they wanted to make sure whoever they drafted would be in camp on time. They did not believe that Reggie Bush's agent would accept their contract offer. Since they had Mario Williams rated almost equal and his agent was easier to deal with they knew they could get a deal done right away. Also the Texans have several good running backs and an awful pass rush. Now they have filled one of the key spots with the highest rated defensive lineman to come around in many years.
