Re: Current 2014 Free Agents
 

One guy who may be flying under the radar on the WR list is E. Sanders out of Pitt. He is a very good number 2 who flashes some big games opposite A. Brown. Pitt just drafted high round rookie so they may not pursue Sanders strongly. Not sure if he is a scheme fit, just know he makes plays up in Pitt.

We can do a lot better than Incognito on and off the field.

You are correct. I was wrong but I do remember him having a bad rep coming out of Buffalo because of a Gun charge.

He was on the Redskins radar, or actually we were on his radar. I'd keep an eye on him

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents
 

I would not suggest trying to spend our 2nd or 3rd rounder on a WR. I would build from the trenches first. We had a very small offensive line this year. Anybody know how the Bengals ranked in terms of weight amongst offensive lines last year? I thought they were pretty big but I could be wrong. If Gruden prefers bigger linemen I think you let WR be taken care of in free agency and use your draft picks on sturdy linemen, along with a free agent or two. I'd look at possibly changing out the entire line but Trent.

They need to be quick to run zone read schemes but the pressure up the middle from the stronger DTs just ruin's RG3's chances at developing. Have to get bigger IMO.

I like him, just at times he it a little inconsistent, but he wouldn't command a pretty penny.

I'd like Sanders he'd be a good slot as well

Re: Current 2014 Free Agents
 

Emmanuel Sanders is just another guy who can't catch. He's had as many big drops as he's had big plays. We once had a guy here that we nicknamed "50/50". He drove us crazy. So would Sanders.

I don't know how they ranked among all starting OLs, but the average height and weight of the Bengal's starting OL is 6-5, 322. OT Andrew Whitworth is 6-7, 335. [I]That's[/I] the kind of size we need.

The O-lineman on our roster now better beef up, and not in a LeRibeus way either.
