Bengals are expected to show interest in QB Tony Pike if cut

Pretty obvious that Jewy Richard$on and John "The Butcher of 2009" Fox just drafted him so they could cut him and save the money.

Had no clue that Cantwell was going to progress as nicely?

That's fair, but still -- they had a semi-proven starter in Moore and had drafted Clausen, who I would think is the obvious heir-apparent. They also drafted Edwards.

Before anyone jumps on my case about Edwards playing receiver, I still think he'd be a fine emergency quarterback. I don't see why we couldn't have entered the season with Moore, Clausen, Cantwell as our quarterbacks and Edwards as the fourth emergency quarterback.

The phrase "too many cooks in the kitchen" comes to mind. Maybe they thought they'd be able to trade Pike later for picks, but they'd have to develop him to do that.

Why the hell did I buy this insurance policy if I was never going to have a wreck!

Clausen was the insurance.

Seriously, prior to this Fox had drafted what, two quarterbacks since 2002? It just pissed me off to see them going quarterback crazy all of a sudden. Where was this interest in years past?

Tony Pike for Andre Caldwell -- straight up.

why did they pick pike? because he was the best pick available in the draft. because if he didn't make the team, there would be a thread that another team would be interested in him. hence, he was a good insurance policy that can be cashed in for max value.

But where does it end? Would you take a quarterback in all seven rounds provided they were the best player available?

We have positions of need that another quarterback can't help us with.

Has anybody here ever watched that show Hoarders, Buried alive.

Trade him for a 5th rounder

[CatMan72]

Why would they trade for him when they can just wait for us to waive him in order to put him on the PS?

It's the same way we got Moore from Dallas.

[Future of the Funchise]

I hope we can find a way to keep him, but if we can't then Cincy would be the best place for him. I hope he goes there and has a Bledsoe/Brady scenario and dethrones Carson. lol

[Samuel L. Jackson]

Trade him straight up for Dez Briscoe... WIN
