Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
It's not just JJ. When will the Bengals realize Crocker and Nelson shouldn't be your starting safeties?
Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
I'm not so much worried about our safeties. Mays is going to get a chance to play soon.

That should worry you. Mays is behind those guys for a reason.

I really hope they Bengals don't have to rely on a draft bust whom they picked up for nothing.
Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
A 23 year old with less than 2 seasons of experience is a bust. You learn something new every day!

Well, how has Mays lived up to his draft position?
Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
Apparently Mays is picking up the defense in practice. He has the raw ability, so if he learns to play in a system he could be a great pick up.
But yeah, our secondary is pretty weak.

Actually, scouting reports have been saying for over a year now that he simply doesn't have the raw ability that he was thought to have. He has good speed in one direction, but he only runs well one way.

And McCoy is allowed to run like a gazelle.

I would say he still has way more athletic ability than most safties, but he probably doesn't have that out of this world talent that made him the high draft pick. Luckily we weren't the team who used that draft pick, and we basically got him for nothing...any production would be gravy.

And the Bengals got Reggie Nelson in return for David Jones. Another steal.
To all the ignoramuses, Mays injured his hammy at the end of the preseason. That's why you haven't seen much of him.
Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
I wonder what the Browns plan to do at QB for the future. It's his 2nd year and McCoy hasn't exactly taken big strides forward or anything.
Re: 2011 Bengals Discussion Part II
Atkins has been in beast mode all season long.
