Could give us a big boost at the DE spot as a pass rush specialist. Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk Same thought I had when I saw that. He would certainly be better than Hunt for a couple years. Hunt is absolutely worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn't good enough to cut the mustard with the Cleveland Hueys... Maybe A,J. Hawk part deux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmishBengalFan Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 I fully expect the Ratbirds to make a run at F/A Kruger. Their defensive line has been an embarrassment this preseason - the departure of Ngata and McPhee hurt them more than they had hoped. But they won't have the luxury of keeping extra defenders after the cutdowns due to how decimated their TE corps have become. Damn, there's not a single TE on that roster whose not hurt or on IR now. They don't have enough wiggle room to add depth at both positions, so going with a known quantity like Kruger might allow them to shore-up the defense without needing any extra depth. I don't think we need him as much as they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmishBengalFan Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Bengals cut 11, need 4 more by Tuesday 4pm: WR Michael Bennett LB Jayson DiManche DE Jack Gangwish WR Antwane Grant LB Darien Harris K Zach Hocker QB Joe Licata FB Jeff Luc TE John Peters S Floyd Raven CB Corey Tindal Expect some/all of these dudes to go on IR/PUP: Andrew Billings (Surgically-repaired Meniscus) William Jackson (Torn Pectoral) Cedric Peerman (Fractured Forearm) Brandon Thompson (ACL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Not shedding tears for losing any of those guys (not the IR/PUPs). Especially that Licata. Watching him the other night was actually painful, he was so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelWeston Posted August 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Not sure why we cut Matt Johnson. I think he could have been good. What are the rules on PUP list. Can that be anyone or people who didn't practice yet. Can any of our guys go on PUP, other than Thompson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little confused about how the IR-recall rule works now. I saw someone saying that you can only use it down the line on somebody who was on the 53-man roster to start the year. So for the Bengals to keep their options open on somebody like Jackson, they'd need to cut down to 52 plus Jackson and then put him on IR and try to sign his replacement.

I think BT goes PUP and Billings to IR and 2 more "real" cuts. I think Take may be one of them to give him a chance elsewhere. Unless they're still not sure about Erickson.

|High School Harry| Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 A bit redundant because I have not been keeping up but just found this... In addition to releasing Tate, the Bengals made several moves with injured players. - Defensive tackle Brandon Thompson went on the physically unable to perform list, but could be eligible to return after the sixth week of the season. Thompson suffered a knee injury in the final game last season. - Rookie defensive tackle Andrew Billings went on injured reserve. He suffered a knee injury during practice on Aug. 10. - Receiver Mario Alford was released. He suffered an ankle injury in the first preseason game. If nobody claims him off waivers, he'll revert to the Bengals' injured reserve list. - Kicker Jonathan Brown was waived off injured reserve. He'd been sidelined by a foot injury. The Bengals didn't make a move with running back Cedric Peerman, who broke his left forearm on Sunday against Jacksonville. Peerman, the No. 4 running back, is one of their top special teams players and was picked for his first Pro Bowl last season.

SmoothD Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 If the Vikings waive WR/KR Cordarrell Patterson, I would take a look at him. He has great size and speed (6-3 225 lbs.) Only thing that worries me is that he has been in Zimmer's doghouse since he arrived. He might just need a fresh start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhodeIslandFan Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 what in the past 12 years have you seen this team do that makes you think Tate gets cut? they JUST re-signed him, and he costs NOTHING, and the bengals arent much for chopping cheap, veteran, role players who are familiar to the team/offense/whatever. also cant imagine erickson makes our or any roster. PS guy at best. It just shows that we think we know but don't know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimmer's a pretty much a players guy. I think you would have to be a pretty big numbskull to stay in his doghouse. Pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
