    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I'm of the opinion that NO team should draft Burfict. Sure, invite him to a camp, but this kid needs a dose of humility in the worst way, and not drafting him at all might finally wake him up.

    If he isn't humbled by still being available I don't know what is going to get to him.

    If we are going to teach someone a lesson and bring them into camp, let it be Philip Thomas. Burficts problems go beyond his attitude. Dude got really fat in a time where he shoulda been in the best shape of his life.

    He looked legit in Week 1 but he got hurt in Week 2 (hit to the head not considered serious).

    Sad cause as a prospect in general as a LB Its crazy to think we have cut 4 out of 8 and we are thin at LB

    Never been a doomsday type of fan but I'm leanig towards Tanny leaving, Though I believe after this year with all the Contracts off the books in LB & Maybe a trade to move Cro or Holmes. Moore maybe gone? Will both stay(safeties)? Will they both go? Do we pay keller? We might have some flexiblitiy in the coming years to make smart desicions in FA to keey ourselves afloat cause Cutting 4 out of 8 is pretty retarded. Wasted picks. Ya ya no player back there makes impact this year... but my question if its not this year why not keep them and build the talent up?

    I felt we should have grabbed him with one of our 7th round picks. Not like we don't need linbebackers....but hindsight is 20/20....actually to be fare I think I started saying we should draft him 5th round or later after it became apparent he was sliding hard.

    Looks like I was wrong on him.
    Seen him play twice, he's a solid enough rotational MLB right now. Not a star by any stretch, but not as bad as I thought either.

    This guy was great for the Bengals. I wish we took him in the seventh last year, it would've made sense
