    Re: Rumor: M. Lewis To the Ravens.

    I'd gladly take the draft pick, as long as its the first rounder from this year.(8th overall). Two picks back to back.

    Wishful for him only. Most of his readers comments agree with many, many Bengal fans. Marvin Lewis going to Baltimore for free would be absolutely perfect for me. Let him take control of another team in our division and that's one less team to worry about. I would love this move.
    This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.

    Any coach? Or just Marvin?

    Marvin has lost the team. I'd trade him him for any draft pick from Baltimore. He's not a good in-game coach.

    Right now on 1530, Cutler is talking about trading Marvin for 2 first-round draft picks. He's asking if anyone would do it. That's a no-brainer. I don't think there's a chance of that happening, but maybe Baltimore is sick of losing games to the Marvin and the Bengals??

    Could we just change the title of this thread? It's not a rumor- it's an idea proposed by a sports columnist.

    This isn't a rumor, its speculation from a Baltimore beat writer suggesting the Ravens should hire Lewis.

    If it came from Steve Bisciotti or Ozzie Newsome, it might carry more credence.

    Even then, as much as I would love to have two picks back to back, there is no way the Bengals, as incompetent as Mike Brown is, are going to let a head coach leave for a team within the division.

    Re: Rumor: M. Lewis To the Ravens.

    Are you saying that Mike Brown isn't foolish enough to trade Marvin to a team within the division or are you saying that he's not smart enough to trade Marvin for another first round pick?

    Mike Brown is a very smart man. Went to Dartmouth and I believe he has a law degree. There's a difference between being stupid and being stubborn. Brown is stubborn, which I think he gets from his old man. I would say he isn't likely to send Marvin to the Ravens mainly because he probably isn't too keen on having Marvin in the division if he goes to another team.

    Rumor makes it sound like there is at least some inside source tied to it. This is just idle speculation from a reporter.

    Stupid vs. stubborn is worth debating. Not trading down with the New Orleans Saints in 1999 to select Akili Smith instead was stupid...not stubborn. :
