I don't root Farrior, who I went to school with, or Miller who was also a Wahoo, or Santonio Holmes, whose jersey I bought at the 'shoe. If you're a stooler, you're dead to a Bengals fan... in this Bengals fan's opinion. [/quote] I think thats botha bit shortsighted and juvenile. What if we sign a player off the steelers, browns or ravens. Does this player you hated instantly become okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#22 Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 NFL.com says this: Pick Analysis: The Bengals have released one receiver this offseason and another has requested a trade. Simpson has big hands and long arms which is great for a wideout. He set school records with 157 receptions for 2,636 yards and 41 touchdowns. He will be given a chance to play meaningful snaps as a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks, but it's what you *try* to do. I'm with you within the team. I too hate ocho fucko, and have never really been a fan. But obviouslsy, I don't root against him. Kinda the same with Perry, or if we were to bring on an ex-stooler not named Joey Porter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be over it instantly once we finally draft a DT with the potential to be a difference maker, and not a rotational guy. I just don't know that we can find one on day 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably can't draft better then the Bengals but it would be pretty close. They are illogical with the way they draft. Unlike a team like the Steelers who are very logical.

The Scales Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I think It's Hilarious that two fellas a lot of people would have liked to seen in stripes, (Sweed, and Mendenhall) , who the Bengals had the ABILITY to get, both went to a division rival . . . and not just any rival. The Drama Continues. And all this bologne about NFL teams knowing more, or whos' a gm, or the why someones a gm and someones not don't mean squat. Or someones a coach, and your not, Nobody knows a dayum thing when it comes to the draft its all guessing...all they maybe have is more info. THEY ARE GUESSING JUST LIKE US!!! Thats the fun Ryan Leaf T.J. Come on!!! Nobody knows shit but Mike Mayock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoCommando Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 How many people wanted Byron Leftwich over Carson Palmer in 2003? Maybe the Bengals do have a small clue, they do this shit for a living, 15 hours a day. This dude could be the next Marques Colston for all we know. Let the dude drop one fuckin pass in stripes before we rip the front office, can we?!?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoKaine7777 Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 The point is they didn't need to pick Simpson as their #2 pick. It's stupid. The front office/coaches are incompetent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their #1 is sittin out the season (allegedly), their #2 is unsigned after this year, their #3 is unemployed, and their #4 is injury prone. We've had great success overall as a franchise with receivers, maybe they do know a little bit whats going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
