thezerawkid Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 I think, at some point, we all have to admit that it's time to wait and see what determination the court makes. He hasn't been found guilty of anything and if the court shows leniency, what does it hurt if we have another experienced, formerly outstanding defensive back?

Courts or no courts his behavior in the videos make him an A+ ass clown in my book. He seems to have an anger issue that has also manifested itself on the field of play from time to time with significant negative results. Throw in the high salary and deteriorating play and I say hit the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe his long term replacement is on the roster (WJIII) but I'd think you want more than just Dre as a proven, good CB for 2017. If free agency in the NFL didn't exist, I'd have been 100% on board with keeping Jones around regardless of what he does off the field. However... It will be interesting to see how Brandon Carr, Captain Munnerlyn, Marcus Cooper, Kayvon Webster, Prince Amukamara, Morris Claiborne, and DJ Hayden all perform this year. Those are all guys that switched teams that we could have targeted had we cut (or planned to cut) Adam Jones at the beginning of the FA period. Most of those guys were even cheaper than we're paying Jones this year, so we could have had a younger CB with potential upside and had a couple/few million to spend elsewhere along with it. I just hope Jones skill level doesn't decline even more from 2016 because he has the 23rd highest cap hit among CBs in the league for 2017 with each of the guys I listed above being less. If Jones' play declines even more this year, the Bengals are going to look stupid for not letting him go when they had the easy out of "hey, you're a shithead that does shithead stuff".

Totally with you. I just think that we have our part time number two and/or nickel back guy on the roster already. Quality secondary depth can be iffy. He knows the system. He was fairly measured and in check last season, even though his play took a bit of a hit. Unless you have a sure fire upgrade or guy where there will be no drop off, you don't cut him.
