NASTYNATI Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 I REALLY want the Bengals to sign M.Bush. Then they don't have to use one of their first 3 picks on a RB unless it is the BPA at the time they pick. In a perfect world they Sign Bush and L.Miller falls to 53!

[/quote] The article names: Bush Green-Ellis Langford Possibly Terrance Newman Visits already lined up: Ross Davis Jacob Bell Sounds like the Patriots or Packers are going to snatch Fanene. We're just not able to field a competitive offer. Since we're so close to the possible cap number in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 I'd rather not sign any RB in free agency. Spend the money on guards and draft a rookie RB with fresh legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they get a starting RB and at least one starting guard in free agency. Outside of safety, this is a good draft for the bengals. Deep at DL, OG, WR and RB.

Bush, Tolbert, and BJGE were backup/committee guys with their old teams. It means they have less wear and tear than a bellcow but also aren't as talented. We need to get better in short yardage situations which Bush or Tolbert might be able to help with, and better at big plays which none of these guys will help with. If we upgrade the guards, short yardage is less of a problem, and adding a speed back in the draft helps with the occasional home run. The team should spend freely in free agency but you can't buy what isn't for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
