Once viewed as an elite prospect, Taylor Mays fell to the 2nd round in 2010, where he was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers. Many felt the 49ers got a steal with him there, but he turned out to be the exact opposite of a steal for them. Mike Singletary, his biggest backer, was fired after Mays’ rookie year. Jim Harbaugh came in, decided he didn’t like Mays and shipped him to...

This past Friday I was lucky enough to be a part of a great event put on by the Athletes United Foundation . I was on a flag football team sponsored by Rich’s, Give and Go and John Morrell that competed in a celebrity flag football tournament at Paul Brown Stadium.

Today is the 1st in a series of 10 Rookies who may be considered Underdogs but I think can be contributors or in some cases very good NFL players.
My First Pick of Underdog Player to watch this season is Tight End Orson Charles from the University Of Georgia, who was picked by the Cincinnati...

The Bengals used the 17th overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft on Alabama’s Dre Kirkpatrick, but if you ask the Cincinnati Enquirer’s Joe Reedy, Kirkpatrick won’t open the season as the starter. The Bengals have plenty of veteran cornerbacks, including Leon Hall, Nate Clements, Jason Allen, Pacman Jones, and Terence Newman, but needed Kirkpatrick to provide youth.
Reedy predicts...

Despite many opportunities, the Cincinnati Bengals didn’t bother drafting a linebacker during the 2012 NFL Draft. They took a flier on undrafted free agent Vontaze Burfict, but they also traded Keith Rivers to the New York Giants and showed limited (if any) interest in re-signing longtime reserve Brandon Johnson. They haven’t even showed much interest at available linebackers...

The Bengals added two new starters at guard this offseason, Travelle Wharton as a free agent...

The 2012 season is shaping up to be an exciting one for us fans. Over the next three months, we will be reminded innumerable times that the Bengals have been to the postseason in back-to-back season only once… 30 years ago.
I, for one, am ready to plant the flag and assert that this mystic curse of history will be broken in 2012.
This is not 2006 with its suddenly-less-opportunistic...

This NFL offseason has been rough for veteran wide receiver Terrell Owens. Owens appeared on the Dr. Phil show and was simply hammered. He found himself being cut by an indoor football team, with the team forcing him out of the home they provided for him along with the team provided Jeep Wrangler.

With every year comes a group of new rookies. A guy like Cam Newton detonates on contact.
Some performers like Cam’s Panthers back-up Jimmy Clausen fairly or unfairly falls short of their inclusion in broadcast conversations that were repeated daily for months straight after the previous NFL season ended.
Then you have the third group that becomes top-shelf talent after spending...
