Is Ocho available? - New England Patriots Forums

I don't know his contract situation but BB has always liked him.
The Bengals went out with a wimper in the playoffs and may be making changes. I do not see them winning that division again next year.

Your thoughts on him?

Better options out there without the shenanigans.

With all due respect to 85, when's the last time he had a season worthy of the antics he comes up with?

I don't mind his antics at all. With Chad it's mostly tongue and cheek. I feel he would loosen things up a bit in the locker room. Lawyer Milloy wasn't always a robot and had an outgoing personality combined with a hate to lose attitude.

receivers:

Randy - number 1 wideout
Chad - number 2 wideout
Wes/Julian - slot receiver

It would be like 2007 when we had a true number 2 receiver to REALLY open things up (Stallworth).

People say we had no number 3 receiver this year...but I say we had no true number 2. Wes Welker is amazing and possibly the best receiver on the team. The numbers have nothing to do with that. In my opinion the slot receiver is always the number 3.

I don't think BB will find it amusing and in the end his opinion is all that really matters. We need football players not side show acts.

Call me crazy, but I think 72 catches over a thousand yards and 9 touchdowns constitutes a football player ;-)

When the so called 'side show act' is a friend of BB's and he's someone other team members will listen to, who gives a sh$t if he pulls a Deionne Branch after he scores a TD.

not for nothing....BB LOVES ocho. Loves him. And it's not the blowing smoke up your but type stuff that he does most of the team. He really likes and respects ocho as a ftball player. It's wierd...but it's true.

I approve of this message. He has too much respect for BB to go against his wishes with the antics. He still has ability and can be a relatively cheap drastic upgrade to Aiken. What is his contract status?

NO Walter or Bryant

please no more headaches!!..
