The Scales Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Encouraging news on Nate, we've got Miller, Landon Johnson, and Brian Simmons plus some others whose names escape me. Nate, Miller and Johnson could all start. Hell Landon could start any of the Backer slots. We will be just fine. These players are only hurting themselves and their chances of starting by holding out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Thurman doesn't bother me a whole lot, but I think Pollack is critical. But as long as everyone is in by next Friday (1 week before first pre-season game) I will be content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scales Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 So are you saying Landon Couldn't start at, what is it, "Sam"? Strong Side? aww hell Left outside linebacker. Anyway i think it was a bit presumptious of Marvin to tab these guys as starter. It's a good way to light the fire of the players you already have on the roster though.

WhoDey85 Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Landon, Simmons, and hopefully a healthy Webster can hold it down. Especially if Thurman and Pollack hold out for a long time. And what the heck is up with Ghiaciuc. He needs to get his fourth round ass in camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scales Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 My thinking was for depth. The roster will shake down in camp and all will be right with the world.

|Tigers Johnson| Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Why is it though, every year the bengals have some new clause or some new technique they are trying that holds up these signings. I know they are trying to be responsible for the future, but at some point you have to say fuck it the future is NOW! Get Pollack and Thurman signed!! And wtf is a 4th rounder thinking holding out when there is an undrafted free agent(Wilkerson) that some people think is potentially better, there waiting to take his spot.
