    Not a lineman, but those comments fit Drew Carter.

    I hope Jake keeps throwing to the guys wearing our jerseys. Still a little early for him to question a lineman. Just saying.

    Mathis was the first guy who came to my mind, too.

    Fonoti was definitely a muscle head with little-to-no footwork.

    Possibly, but for some reason I kinda doubt it.

    I'd buy he's included. I don't buy any vets we brought in, because of the combine reference.

    PFF: You've plied you trade up to now as a back-up lineman, which has involved you playing multiple positions on the line. How has the chance to settle on one position allowed you to improve your performance?

    EM: I never wanted to be the sixth man who could play all the spots well. I wanted to be a guy who could play one spot great. I haven't played the same position for two years in a row since high school. I moved between LT and RT while also doubling as the backup center my first three years of college. I was moved to LG my senior year and that gave me my best shot at the NFL. When I was drafted, Carolina moved me to the only position I had never played, RG. After not playing my rookie year, I started my 2nd year at RG, only the next year to be moved to tackle and not play a snap. They bounced me to third team center the next year only to cut me at the end of camp. I got picked up by Miami and practiced every spot with them and splitting reps at RG on Sundays. They cut me after week 12 and that's how I ended up in Cincinnati. The Bengals had me practicing at every spot on the line every week for the rest of the season. After the season, I called Marvin Lewis and told him I wanted to play defensive end. He ultimately laughed at me and told me he thought I could compete for one of the inside spots. I conceded and vowed to do what it takes to get the job done. They had me working the inside three spots in mini-camp and OTA's. When camp came around, I worked mostly LG and was able to settle in and get comfortable. Personally, I believe that staying in one spot is much better for players than having to bounce around. If I play a few weeks in a row at LG and then make a sudden move to RG, it will feel kind of awkward and takes a minute to get used to again, even though I've taken thousands of reps at that position.

    Couldn`t be the ones that blocked us to the Super Bowl....

    and DIDN`T get RE-SIGNED...



    Just like Willie Green & Mark Clayton were 72% of our passing yardage

    w Coillins when we went to the NFL Champ game in G/Bay


    THEY didn`t get invited back to camp the next summer.....


    Green went to Denver that year & got a SB ring..


    The local 'press' never asked any questions about either scenario


    And the common demominatator is that Richardson wouldn`t write the checks..



    Just a taller version of George Shinn that keeps it in his pants..


    And NOBODY in the 'International City' can see the forest for the trees....AGAIN..
