snarkster Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 The Hobo's headline says, "Bengals 'move' Maualuga." Not 'cut' or 'move on from.' Made me think someone gave them a jock or a bent kicking tee for him. Not that I'm surprised though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't miss many starts either. I don't get the disrespectful comments, Rey was reliable, played injured, and left the team involuntarily. I'm sure if Rey had a choice I'm sure he would rather be on the team than a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't miss many starts either. Yep and he may have been dog shit in coverage and started missing some tackles the past couple of years, but he was a solid 1st/2nd down MLB for a while. Sure he wasn't a hall of famer, but he wasn't horrible. If the coaching staff realized to stop playing him on passing downs earlier in his career I promise more people wouldn't be hating on the dude. That said, good riddance, he was expendable at this point on our roster. Lb does look a little weak as Le Tigre said but I thought the same before we cut Maualuga.

No, they seem determined to carry this fool through what is likely to be a lengthy suspension, being this is like his 9th strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randle P McMurphy Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Peko not brought back. Maualuga cut. Only one left is Adam Jones. Dump him and add another $7.6 million to get someone else or extend someone maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Owczarski has said if he's released it will be because of his performance and not the arrest, just an FYI for anyone that hasn't seen that. If the FO deems his play has slipped too much to be paid as he is and they feel he's expendable, that's the only way he isn't on our roster. The only thing that sucks about cutting Adam is then we'd have to rely on starting a "rookie" CB in WJIII. Unless of course they'd sign another vet as you said, but I can't imagine a CB on par with Adam Jones' ability being cut in the near future.

I have said it elsewhere but for a 33 year old CB, getting suspended for a quarter of the year isn't a terrible thing. Preserves him for the back end of the year if our rookies don't play well and saves us a little money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalFanInTO Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Rey Maualuga dropped like a stone in the draft because NFL teams realized his skill set was limited and despite his crushing hits his production was actually pretty poor. He had a couple of decent seasons but was effectively a bust and had more terrible moments than good. If the Bengals were actually going to do something with the cap space they gained and/or cut that bag of dicks Adam Jones this would have been a great move. Now, it seems like a day late and a dollar short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|High School Harry| Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 When Maualuga was a senior at USC the other two linebackers were Brain Cushing and Clay Matthews. He was the runt of that litter and a lot of his stats were because of the attention given to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
