Lewis says re-signing safety Reggie Nelson and signing a veteran receiver such former as Patriot Brandon LaFell still appear to be options.

 

Veteran wide receivers and re-signing Reggie Nelson still on table for Bengals - Cincy Jungle

Good to hear I think.

I guess if there is nothing else out there, but signing Brandon LaFell doesn't do much for me.

Sounds like a deal with LaFell is close...

Is it just me or do the Bengals always seem to get the short end of the FA market? Can't think of a single WR signing via FA that worked out well.

 

I'd take Nelson back at a fair rate for both parties. WR? If AJ throws the ball to anyone other than Green, Eifert or Bernard he should have to up downs or bear crawls for a week.

I didn't realize McCarron was the starter now lol.

What do you think of Lafell. The fact that the Pats don't want him back, and that the Pats did try to get Marvin Jones. Tells me they agree that Lafell is a big downgrade from Jones.

 

It better be for a very cheap deal if they sign him.

As a #3 I guess he's alright, and could do well with AJ and Eifert. He has stones for hands though. One of those guys that'll drop it right in the numbers, but the next throw make some ridiculous acrobatic grab.

I haven't watched him play in a year or more, but I seem to remember him being a tall guy who could get open deep. Not quick enough to run much underneath stuff outside of sitting down in between zones. Am I way off?

He's more a "take the top off" guy than a slot guy IMO. I don't necessarily think he's quick enough for either role though.

I'm sure Dalton is still nursing that sore thumb.

Out of curiosity, will you root for Lafell as an individual if he signs with the Bengals?

 

On a side note, I will definitely be rooting for Marin Jones and Mohamed Sanu this coming season.
