Bengals invite more trouble?

They selected Ahmad Brooks in the 3rd round of the supplemental draft. He was kicked off the Virginia team after off-field "problems".

Re: Bengals invite more trouble?

He's super-talented, though. Supposedly he's lost somewhere around 30 pounds this spring/summer and was a freak in some workouts for teams. Could be a very nice pickup! Just don't let him hang around with Chris Henry.

Re: Bengals invite more trouble?

If he pans out, he's the biggest steal of the year.

If his issues continue, Marvin gets more heat.

Frankly, I don't think Marvin cares about the heat.....he cares about winning.

Well Odell Thurman has been suspended the first 4 games of the season for violating the substance abuse policy. This pick makes a bit more sense now.

Re: Bengals invite more trouble?

This kid has a lot of talent...

Too bad he lacks brains and a sense of judgment...

Good pick up.
