According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Bengals worked out former Giants wideoutHakeem Nicks today.

Nicks caught seven passes in his six-game reunion with the Giants last year, after his disappointing 2014 stint with the Colts.

In fact, it’s been a really long time since the 28-year-old former first-rounder has really done anything to help a team.

 

Thanks a LOT, Nippleshorts!

lol I dont get why every one wants another wr. yes I get this thread is sarcasim, but I am talking in general.  with KB coming back, theres not going to be enough passes to go around.  its bad enough that funchess might not get enough to progress this season.

The motley crew of receivers dropping passes in the Super Bowl is still on people's minds. I think WR should be pretty low on our list of priorities, but I understand wanting a true sure-handed receiver added. Philly's the surest handed of our top 4 right now which is less than ideal. And in theory, we should be adding competition and trying to improve every single position.

You can never have too many good WR's

I agree.  Cotchery out Benji in.

KB, Ginn, Funch, Philly, Bersin/Hill/Byrd

add Olsen, Dickson and Tolbert out of the backfield and I don't see where another WR fits in?  

We gonna throw the ball 50-60 times a game like Indy or NE?

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
