Headlines to Grill By

Safety Mike Doss wants to play for an Ohio team. Doss has amassed 260 tackles, a sack, a forced fumble, seven picks and nine passes defensed over five seasons, but has appeared in just 14 games (5 starts) over the past two years after blowing out an ACL in 2006.

Should the Bengals try to deal for Jason Taylor? I say, what the heck, we can always use another offseason no-show, right?

John Clayton writes that the Bengals may regret not addressing the DT position more aggressively in the offseason. I fear he’s right.

Bengalsblog thinks that The Chickster’s top five concerns list could be a lot longer.

    I think a move for Jason Taylor would work for Cincinnati.
    I was thinking (last week) while my boys on the Sirius Blitz, Adam and Solly. kept discussing Taylors desire for a trade as compared to what Chad has done.  They talked about everything except for actually Sending CJ to Miami for Taylor.  Of course there would have to be and early pick in the draft for Cincy if that could actually happen.  Plus the thought of Taylors salary and the cap hit after June 1st would still be around 5 mill.
     
    I have mentioned that if Chad wants out that he should pony up some dough himself, but once he sees that he would be going to Miami where he wouldn’t even be close to a Championship that wouldn’t happen.
     
     
    Taylor no doubt would be a great addition and agree wholeheartedly with PK.  So, if the Bengals could get something done with Jason Taylor and send CJ packing I think the fan base would agree as well.  But can you see Chad Johnson playing for Parcells?  Well, as we all know………THAT won’t happen now or in the future.  Remember “Chad won’t Change”.  Okay, turn those Brats and hand me a cold one!

    The Dolphin trade only works if the reason Parcells left Dallas in the first place wasn’t to rid himself of primadonna #1, T.O.  Winding up with Chad- primadonna#2- might nudge the Tuna’s persecution complex into full bloom. Maybe we send Chad north, say, to the Montreal Alouettes for Peter Warrick, a truckload of  kegged Molson Export, and  a promise to permanently seal Celine Dion’s lips shut.
    Clayton obviously isn’t as blindly optimistic as I am that Jason “Beast” Shirley will be tearing through opposing O-Lines like he’s playing Red Rover, Red Rover against the third grade at Little Sisters of the Poor- or Alexander through Scythia, you choose.
    I heard somewhere that we already had a Mike Doss in Kyries Hebert but I’d have to go with NFL- versus CFL, experience. Give him a shot. Plus, Hebert is a character risk.
    That is all.

    If history is any guide, injuries will open up holes in the secondary. We’ve had guys like Madieu Williams and Ethan Kilmer go out for the year, and both Deltha and Dexter have been dogged by boo-boos their whole careers. And with the roster limit down to 80, chances of injuries are higher all around this year. Bottom line, I’m sure Doss will find a home somewhere, and it could very well be here.
