Disaster Averted!! Skins Offer for Ocho Cinco Rejected

I'm surprised the Bengals rejected that offer, unless perhaps the qualifiers for the 3rd/1st were sky high. But even then, a third and a first is a pretty good deal for a guy who has repeatedly said he doesn't want to play for your franchise. Also, could be that Cincinnati rejected to offer initially to save face, but they'll take something slightly better (maybe a throwaway seventh-rounder) and get the deal done.

They may come back to this deal when the Redskins are faced with the daunting prospect of actually having to evaluate a first round draft pick.

The Bengals should have taken it. The move would have helped both sides. Washington would have picked up a #1 who would put out and the Bengals get rid of a "in- house," clubhouse cancer.

In comparison to Oakland's Randy Moss trade, this was a great trade offer that Cincinnati should have considered. However, the overwhelming reality is any players they take in the first and third rounds will probably amount to half the talent of Johnson. Either way the Bengals lose.

True. When you compare it to the fleecing of Al Davis for Randy Moss, it's patently ridiculous to refuse the offer.

The Eagles will give them Lit shepord and a second rd pick. Hell will give him Lito and a 1st rd pick. We need a dam WR.

sorry eagle fan, cinci doesnt want a player for chad, especially a malcontent like lito. Cincinatti wants to draft young players with good character. looks like the eagles will always need a receiver.
