    Bengals sign Michael Myers

    No mention if he will be allowed to use his mask and knife during the games.

    The Bengals agreed to terms Thursday with Michael Myers, the 10-year veteran defensive tackle who has played for three different teams, according to an NFL source.

    The Bengals don’t announce signings until the player has signed the contract.

    Myers, 31, has played the last two seasons in Denver and last year had a career-high 37 solo tackles. He started every game for the Broncos last season, but his 6-2, 300-pound frame was deemed too small for new defensive coordinator Jim Bates.

    Myers, the 100th pick in the fourth round of the 1998 NFL Draft by the Cowboys out of Alabama, played his first six seasons in Dallas before the Cowboys cut him during the 2003 season and the Browns picked him up a month later.

    While in Cleveland, Myers played in 23 games with eight starts before Denver traded for him and defensive end Ebenezer Ekuban in exchange for running back Reuben Droughns before the 2005 season.

    Myers looks to be taking the place of Shaun Smith in a tackle rotation headed by starters John Thornton and Sam Adams and emerging second-year man Domata Peko.

    Also Thursday, agent Harold Lewis said that former Ravens and Falcons linebacker Ed Hartwell landed in Cincinnati late in the afternoon and a dinner was planned with coaches, followed by a Friday morning physical and a meet-and-greet at Paul Brown Stadium.

    Although Hartwell went to Atlanta as a middle linebacker, he could also be looked at for both outside spots if the Bengals decide they want to keep Ahmad Brooks in the middle.

    This dude is going to cut down some running backs.

    Incidentally, Myers is my all time favorite slasher.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    What a world we live in when a 300 pound man is deemed "too small."

    Re: Bengals sign Michael Myers

    ...and they also supposedly signed Landon Johnson to a one year deal. The Bengals have a mandatory Five-Johnson-Minimum for the team at all times, so we're okay on that front for awhile.

    Chad - check
    Doug - check
    Rudi - check
    Jeremi - check
    Landon - check

    Any good Johnsons available in the draft this year?
