letabrotherspeak Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 for a 4th and 5th round pick...pending a physical. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3274297 Says he is better in the 4-3, and I thought I read where the Bengals could be going to the 3-4....huh?

gametime Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Obviously a move back to the 4-3. At least they remained active... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutMeInCoach Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Is this one actually true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfback20 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I hope they're going to stay with the 4-3 if he's coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Anthony Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 It's a start... Odom/McCree/Utecht.... get 2 of those 3 and we are in good position going into the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sting Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I think this would be a much better pickup than the Rogers deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malachicrunch Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 AVG less than 3 sacks/year.. About 33 tackles Assist and solo / year. 6'1. High motor guy. Sounds eerily familiar to someone else. #91 is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98NCCalum Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 After looking this over I like this trade. I wasn't sure at first. Yes, the JETS sucked stopping the run, but thats not all on him. He's averaged 51 tackles a season as an interior DL and his sack totals have gone up all but one of his 5 yewars in the league. He's already played 5 seasons and is only 26 years old! I like it!

Son of Bear Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I like it.....with him playing the 3 technique... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwstum00 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Is this the same DeWayne Robertson that played at UK? If so, he was one of my favorite UK players in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too...especially since the Bengals have some extra picks to play with...with some picks to burn so to speak, I think he's worth a 4 and a 5. I think it's a good trade for the Jets as well...they've never got what they wanted from Robertson, so they get rid of him and get a couple of picks. Hopefully, the big guy can make an impact for Cincy...at the least, he'd have to be an upgrade over what they've got right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2reign Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I will say this, if the Bengals go to the 3-4, he will get mauled. If they are sticking to a 4-3, he fits nicely. He is not a Warren Sapp type that gets you sacks from the 3 technique, so don't expect that. He is a guy that gives consistent effort and gets some penetration which then allows linebackers to do their thing. He will be good for Odell if he comes back.

I can live with a DT who at least does his job and holds up at the point of attack. But, it sure would be nice to have a guy like Albert Haynesworth... I'm glad he's a Titan.
