Bengals continue to claim Palmer not going anywhere

You guys thought I was kidding the Browns are crazy and Palmer will retire or play for the Bengals. Maybe they change their tune as this drags on. But right now I wouldn't count on getting Palmer.

Bengals team official: Stance on Palmer hasn’t changed

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on March 4, 2011, 5:42 PM EST

Following a report by SI’s Peter King that the Bengals would be open to listening to offers for Carson Palmer, one Bengals team official told Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer that the team’s stance towards Palmer hasn’t changed.

That stance: Palmer will be playing in Cincinnati or he can retire.

Palmer’s stance: He’d rather retire than play in Cincinnati.

As it states there's no pressure to do anything right now, don't expect anything until CBA is done and the draft is on the brink.

I honestly don't think they are going to do it. I know you are thinking, "That doesn't make sense."

Welcome to Bengal's land

What is Brown trying to accomplish? Do you want Palmer in Cincy after this drama? If not, what the hell are you doing?

He will retire. The Bengals have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING behind him. They have the 4th pick in the draft and Carolina and Buffalo pick before them. Of course, teams needing QBs might trade with Denver. THey could get shut out, coming out of the draft with AJ Green.

I think he will be traded and the logical thing to do is to package a deal with us. They would get their pick of the litter. We get a veteran QB and drop to #4. Assuming Newton goes first, Bowers to Denver, and I have a hunch Buffalo will take either Gabbert or Von Miller. That leaves us Dareus, Fairley, and Quinn from which to choose---and/or possibly Gabbert. What we should have done anyway. We get our guy plus a veteran QB, Cincy gets the best QB in the draft (something they needed anyway) and we all sing "Happy days are here again."

The Bengals want him to stay.

So, until they actually have a chance to deal him, I would expect them to keep pressuring him to stay. Once they can actually make deals we may see some things happen though.

You underestimate the stupidity of the Bengals young Skywalker.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
