Baya Con Dios... But He Was Not Good Enough To Crack The Line-up Anymore...

Re: Bengals Ink Marshall
 

I knew he wasn't going to be on the market long. Still think it was a mistake and a gamble letting him go for Godfrey, but what is done is done. Lemar was one of the guys I wish could have retired a Skin.

Re: Bengals Ink Marshall
 

i agree. Marshall still must have some injury issues. played 2 spots pretty solid for the skins.

Re: Bengals Ink Marshall
 

Good luck Marshal. I agree with the move now.

Re: Bengals Ink Marshall
 

How come nobody calls them the "Bengal-Skins" ?

I think that's a good call. New Orleans is a very real possibility considering the rag tag group of linebackers the Saints are currently running out there. Don't get me wrong, I like every guy they have at linebacker, but they don't have one guy who is a difference maker. They're all "nice" players and I think that any one of them would be best served as a #4 linebacker. I don't know that they have a starter who can separate himself from the pack in the NFL.

Anyway, as far as Lemar to the Bengals: good for him. He's a guy who did everything the Skins could have asked him and it basically ended up getting him cut. While I don't think he's a starter in this league he is definitely a good guy to have on the team because he is so versatile.

I never liked the idea of him moving inside, but he was adequate. Unfortunately, it seemed to me that he bulked up in order to move inside and, when he moved back outside, he looked a whole slower. I think he's best served in a reserve role, but I'd take him in as my 4th linebacker any day of the week.

All that said, I like the Godfrey addition.

Someone on ESPN radio said today that Trotter's knees are practically bone-on-bone. Curtis Martin type wear and tear.

Somebody might pick him up, but I'm not going to be surprised if he calls it a career.

because it's not as catchy as being a Jetskin.

Achilles

Re: Bengals Ink Marshall
 

Hopefully he'll come back from this injury next season. He is a good player and will find work. Perhaps the Bucs will send Trotter to Cinci?
