As has been mentioned a few times, Randy Moss and T.O. both went to their new teams with character issues and both sigificantly improved their new teams. CJ could do the same for the Skins.

Thank You. Totally agree. but.....some on here would have you believe that the Skins being a "dangerous offense" is slightly over rated and Character is more important. Others would have you believe that CJ is "evil" and that we should draft a no name unproven rookie to fill this roll and waite several more yrs in our "rebuilding" process to swing the bat for the Super Bowl. The good news is the longer we keep rebuilding the older our current players get and their hopes of getting to the SB are deminishing. Oh wait, thats exactly what others are saying also, If we keep picking up 30 something or others then we are not drafting young no names to fill the 30 something or others spots.
Man this one is a hard one......try to win now or try to win later........
Do I honestly think the Bengals will trade now that they have a severe WR need. No. but could there be a draft day trade and a deal get done. Yes. Chad agrees to pay back some money lighting the load on the organization and their 8 mil cap hit and a decent trade offer and I can see it getting done. Snyder has been reported to be "enamored" with CJ so I guess we will all have to wait and see if the Bengals decide to pull the trigger. I just can't see the Bengals letting a proven go when they need one. Unless they think being a more balanced team ie: getting a RB to shore up their running game will help them out, I don't see this trade happening.
Before we start casting stones lets look in our closet first in regards to character players; Riggins was a disgruntaled alcoholic who refused to play and Gibbs had to go lure him back. I love Arrington but he used the media for his benifit. Taylor (god bless him) was no angle. He had his share of problems from the get go and I don't recall the character police screaming to get rid of him or trade him away. Coles aired his dirty laundry twice I believe, once leaving the Jets and once returning to the Jets. LOL. Antonio Pierce spoke through the media. I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting and lets not forget all those players who failed to show up for VOLUNTARY work outs. Man they should all be let go. Their not team players they have no character.
