eeyeats Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Just heard it on Sirius NFL Radio, the Bengals have franchised DE Justin Smith. Guess we won't be making a play for him after all. Not that i'm upset about it, i wasn't too hyped to begin with, but i've certainly seen him name bandied about quite a bit lately. EDIT: also fond this story on Bengals.com http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=5889 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKM311 Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 We don't need him. We can draft someone with more potential. Also we can sign a lower priced FA (like we did with salvea), until the younger talent develops (like Golston). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWUeagleMD Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 He's never going to have the type of stats that give him widespread recognition, but he's the type of player who can always improve a D-Line. He's got a high motor and is as good against the run as he is against the pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWinzit Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 No surprise here! Freeney will be the other DE to earn the tag unless he and the Colts work out a contract real soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
