August 29, 200818 yr No idea if it will happen but I do have it from a very good source that the Bengals and Alexander are currently talking to each other about the possibility.
August 29, 200818 yr Since Rudi might be gone soon, I think it could be a possibility. Rudi didn't play at all tonight did he? Think they will cut him? Seems like i they wanted to advertise him as trade bait, they would have played him.
August 29, 200818 yr This team doesn't need an over the hill injury prone running back. They already have those.
August 29, 200818 yr If Rudi were to be traded for a receiver and they could also pick up Alexander, wouldn't this be an even better situation for the Bengals?
August 29, 200818 yr Would make sense if Rudi is gone, of course it also looks like a desperate move by a desperate team at this point.
August 29, 200818 yr What type of money will Alexendar be looking for. It will probably be less than what they will have to pay Rudi this year, if that is the case. Do it, they are essentially the same running back at this point.
August 29, 200818 yr Heard from a very very reliable source that this is a very good possiblity and may be happening soon.
August 29, 200818 yr Swapping out Rudi for Alexander does not improve the Bengals Rb situation one iota. Maybe a nice hometown-flavor, feel-good story, but that's about it.
August 29, 200818 yr I am obviously biased considering I am a Boone grad. However, maybe he could provide some veteran leadership to the locker room as well as some class. It wouldn't hurt to have Perry and Watson be around a former MVP either.
