Don't trade for Asante, if we trade, let's get Leon Hall!

What would you think the Bengals would want in return for this stallion? I think if we can get him, we may have a shot at making the playoffs, this year! Some of you guys already stated we have the best running core, TE core, and linebacking core. So let's make our secondary one of the best as well. Now, we would probably have to give up picks, but I'm cool with that.

My offer would be: 2013 1st round pick, 2012 2nd round pick (and if that is not enough, a 2013 3rd round pick)

If we can get Hall, our team will be set for years to come.

Well, we are not getting Cromartie. After him, every other corner are pretty much light weights. We've burn Clements on a number of occasions and he is getting older. Carlos Rodgers used to get burned by TO if memory serves correctly, showing he is not a physical corner in spite of his size. Speaking of size, every other corner after them are 5'10" or shorter. Even if they have good coverage skills, they won't be able to out muscle or out jump taller receivers. Leon Hall is the best guy in my opinion to fill this void in our secondary, the only thing is we have to trade for him.

By the way, Asante is definitely not worth the trade risk.

Bengals let Jonathan Joseph go...

Why would the give up the other corner that was good?

They haven't exactly extended him yet, and he will be a free agent in 2013. Perhaps they wouldn't mind trading him for some picks.

Edit: Excuse me, he's a free agent in 2012

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
