Trading #85
 

The Bengals are thinking about trading #85 after this season I think he is worth giving up a draft pick. If T.J. Duckett & Brandon Lloyd was worth a draft pick #85 is definietly worth a draft pick. He is a proven NFL star he has the numbers to prove it. I don't see him as a distraction do you see Synder moving on #85 and would it be a good move for the franchise?

Re: Trading #85
 

While I'm definitely in the camp that says keep your draft picks, if we could acquire him w/out giving up too much, he'd be worth it. solid vet reciever, seems to have a good attitude, only this year he's been seen on the sidelines complaining about something.

Why do they want to trade him?

Re: Trading #85
 

i thought you were referring to Brandon Lloyd, no way Chad Johnson ends up in D.C.

Re: Trading #85
 

we have enoguh receivers.... the combo of moss, randel el, cooley, and thrash is suffiecient... we need oline help.......

Re: Trading #85
 

no doubt, he's better than any receiver we could draft or have now.....if you put him on the other side of ARE or Moss, then they will be great #2's, i'd be for give a 3rd up for him......and Brandon Lloyd

Re: Trading #85
 

I don't think I would warm to the idea of Ocho Cinco playing for us. I like him, he's a damn good WR and puts up great numbers, but that's a distraction that isn't needed on a team trying to identify it's self. We all know we have a team that capable of winning, were just not clicking yet. Bringing in more big names isn't going to do anything special for us, just ask Dan Snyder.

oh sh...
My BAD!

I was thinking of #84. Disregard prior post.
you should've said - ocho cinco (sp?)

NO!

Re: Trading #85
 

i still say we are good enough at reciever.

Re: Trading #85
 

Chad Johnson is great, and has one of the best work ethics of any receiver in the game. I would love to have him here. That said, he won't come cheap. There's NO WAY he's traded for anything less than a 1st round pick, and probably more. If we didn't have so many other issues to address, I wouldn't mind trading a 1st for him.

Is there a source for this info?

Re: Trading #85
 

Not to say he wouldn't be a GREAT addition, but seriously, let's try to work with the draft some. Let's look at a young WR in the second or third rounds and see how that works out.

Re: Trading #85
 

This has got to be a joke. No way they trade Chad Johnson and if they do it'll be for at least 2 first round picks not for some scrubs.

WHAT! 2 first round picks, who is this Ocho Cinco you speak of? He is a good player, no doubt, but no reciever would be traded for 2 first round picks.

Re: Trading #85
 

I also heard about Ocho Cinco being dealt away, I think it was on either Rotoworld.com or Profootballtalk.com

So you're saying if the best they can get is a 6th rounder they would take it? No. They wouldn't.

Also, Moss was largely considered to be past his prime, plus a malcontent, and a lot of his success was credited to working with Culpepper and Carter. Obviously that's not the case, but perception is everything.
