HairOnFire Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Germaine Gresham signs 1 year deal with Cardinals. I feel our TE position is now weaker. I hope the young TE's prove me wrong in the worse way. I'm guessing the TE group will be weaker overall in the short term but that's a price I'm more than willing to pay to get better long term. Plus, I think Eifert will prove to be a dramatically offensive weapon who will easily prove to be an upgrade over Gresham provided he can stay healthy. Further, it seems painfully obvious the Bengals didn't trust Gresham on the field or off, thereby negating the biggest advantage a veteran player is supposed to provide. Nutshelled, I expect plenty of growing pains due to youth and inexperience but far less drama stemming from Jermain Gresham unique brand of mental douchebaggery. So short term concerns aside, if Eifert stays healthy I'm confident the Bengals have upgraded their TE group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanvilleBengal Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 I'm a little mixed on this....on the one hand we are able to rid ourselves to a headcase that was infuriating with wanting to count on him. And his time was up But I can see a lot of negatives in this: --- Firstly, he is somewhat proven as a solid tight end, even if he isn't Jimmy Graham/Gronk level as tight ends. ---- Hell he has a couple of Pro Bowls in his pocket as well, even though the Pro Bowl is pretty much a popularity contest. Regardless, I'm sure plenty of players have seen him play. --- As much as so many of you are trashing Palmer because he took his ball and went home, he is the only one that know Gresham because he was the QB when we were drafted. And we know where he is now... --- And this is a personal thought, I just believe that he's gonna get a reinaissance not only from Gresham, but from Palmer as well. I have a feeling that the Cardinals actually know what and how to use a TE effectively. When in the hell since 2003 at least one decent TE was developed and used properly?? Not to mention most of us believe that TE Hayes needs to go, and like gone 2 years ago. Simply put, in our own way, we are gonna get fucked once again. Another player leaves the Bengals to play elsewhere, and suddenly they are a hell of a lot better than when they were Bengals. I wonder why that is. ****dripping sarcasm**** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right.. Some people seem to think every player that we let go it all of a sudden going to figure it out and be super awesome.....and it rarely happens..

Do you have actual facts to back this up or is that just Gresham hate? He had 3 false starts all season. What game can you point to that his mistake was the critical point of the game? I can think of fumbles and ints that were back breakers NOT involving Gresh. Glad he is gone but he wasn't horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
