March 20, 201313 yr He has been making the rounds begging for another chance. No problem there and I don't blame him but he claims to be low risk and high reward. :lol: How about this Chad: 1. The team that knew you the best (Bengals) got rid of you. 2. The team with the "genius" for a head coach (Patriots) got rid of you. 3. The team desperate for help at WR (Dolphins) got rid of you. Add to that, you showed your rear end on Hard Knocks by not doing as Coach Philbin asked and then you assaulted your wife. Only a complete fool of a team would take a chance on you. You had a great career but it is time to move on to the next phase of life. So again I ask the question, how stupid is Chad Johnson?
March 20, 201313 yr Dumb enough to get a tattoo of his ex wife's face on his leg after he beat her and she left him...
March 20, 201313 yr I will give him this though: For years he was not afraid to run crossing routes for the Bengals. He is not that big and he would expose himself to make a play with LBs and safetys all around him (which you cannot say for most NFL receivers). He was entertaining to watch in his prime.
March 20, 201313 yr Author He's exactly right. He's no risk at all. I disagree, I think he brings too much negative attention because he is such a self promoter. In other words, I think you risk team chemistry. Pass...
March 20, 201313 yr He's exactly right. He's no risk at all. I could be wrong, but I took this comment to mean that he is not a risk because every team will simply ignore him.

He ran sideline routes and Houshyomama ran the crossing routes. He had alligator arms in traffic. Not sure what you saw that I didn't.

We must have watched different WR's because that's exactly what Chad REFUSED to do...

March 20, 201313 yr Very well could be right, the written word is tough sometimes. You read it correctly. He's zero risk for any team. If they sign him and he becomes an issue, they simply release him and lose nothing. If he produces, it's an incredibly cheap option. It's a no lose situation.

March 20, 201313 yr What is the upside? It's probably pretty minimal at this point, but who knows, maybe he could surprise and be a solid #3-#4 kinda guy. If he isn't, you let him go and lose nothing.
