March 2, 201016 yr Author Dang a Steelers and Bengals fan actually agree on something. I thought I would never see this. :laugh: Jim Schue and I both agree that franchising a kicker is stupid :lol:
March 2, 201016 yr I don't think franchising a kicker is that bad of a deal if you can save money in the process. In the Bengals situation, they did not have anyone else that they would franchise. TJ Houshmanzadeh probably should've been the choice, but he was so unhappy here that getting rid of him was addition by subtraction. I don't know enough about the Steelers roster to decide if this is a good move or not. But, if they saved money, it's fine by me. I also hope that Reed has a similar season to Shayne Graham as a franchise kicker. :thumb:

Indeed it did, but NFL contracts are not guaranteed so releasing someone who is locked up long-term is not a huge issue. With that said, if the Bengals had signed him to a long-term deal, he'd be kicking next year.
