BeastMode54 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 A number #2 Wr is a NEED on this team. I hope this Bengals wildly overpaid for him, if they didn't I'm gonna be pretty pissed
billsfreak Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted from Rotoworld: "All indications" are that the Bengals are nearing a deal with free agent Laveranues Coles Wednesday, according to the team's website. The move would deal a big blow to Andre Caldwell's fantasy upside. Coles is thought to be seeking nearly as much as T.J. Houshmandzadeh's contract. It's still hard to imagine the Bengals paying Coles more than Chad Ocho Cinco.
Lori Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 All signs were pointing to a deal with Coles getting closer and closer, a move that would bring quarterback Carson Palmer two receivers with more than 600 career catches. Asked about filling the void of wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Lewis said they addressed it last year "in the draft" with Jerome Simpson and Andre Caldwell, and, in an apparent allusion to Coles, he indicated other moves are on the way. Wow -- if that's all he's got ...
scribo Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 The post on the Bungle's Web site doesn't seem that sound to me. It says "all indications" but offers not a single example of what indications he is basing this on.
SKOOBY Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 hopefully they over pay... Hopefully we get him, we can't draft a good one. Hardy was our big catch and he runs like Frankenstein, just aweful.
billsfreak Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 If we lose out when the Bungals are the only competition, what does that say about this organization, especially if what was in the media is true, that they wanted him bad? If it is true, we are the Joke of the league by far.
PistolPeaTear Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Marvin Lewis did say early today more moves for the Bengals are coming, so i wouldnt be surprised if you see Coles sign for them today
Magox Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 he's a punk azz B*tch unless he signs with us of course
scribo Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Marvin Lewis did say early today more moves for the Bengals are coming, so i wouldnt be surprised if you see Coles sign for them today I think that is reading way too far into Lewis' comments.
davefan66 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Some of the same http://www.profootballtalk.com/2009/03/04/...moves-imminent/ If true, I believe we kinda saw this coming. No big loss, other WR's available.
Tipster19 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 Hopefully we get him, we can't draft a good one. Hardy was our big catch and he runs like Frankenstein, just aweful. I was a REAL big advocate of drafting WR Jordy Nelson. Look where we would be if we did. I know that Green Bay drafted him before us but this was one of the times for us to move up in the draft.
LabattBlue Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 hopefully they over pay... ...and this helps the Bills how?
Steely Dan Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted from Rotoworld: "All indications" are that the Bengals are nearing a deal with free agent Laveranues Coles Wednesday, according to the team's website.

It's still hard to imagine the Bengals paying Coles more than Chad Ocho Cinco. If that's true then don't let the door hitcha where the good lord splitcha. If the Bengals pay him close to that then they are morons. I'd much rather have Housh than Coles. If we lose out when the Bungals are the only competition, what does that say about this organization, especially if what was in the media is true, that they wanted him bad? If it is true, we are the Joke of the league by far. Do you ever have anything positive or all your opinions based on very little thought?

I know that Green Bay drafted him before us but this was one of the times for us to move up in the draft. One of the times. Other time would have been to get Big Ben. I also wished we got Jordy. Liked his demeanor.
