    SIGN WILLIE ANDERSON NOW

    BENGALS CUT WILLIE ANDERSON
    Posted by Michael David Smith on August 30, 2008, 3:51 p.m.

    We reported this afternoon that the Cincinnati Bengals asked tackle Willie Anderson to take a pay cut, and now we know Anderson’s answer.

    “They wanted me to take a pay cut,” Anderson told The Cincinnati Enquirer. “I wouldn’t do it.”

    So now Anderson is no longer a member of the Bengals, after 12 seasons and five Pro Bowls.

    Anderson will become an unrestricted free agent, and presumably he’ll sign with someone soon. Although there are lingering injury issues, reliable veteran offensive tackles are always in demand.


    Normally I get pissed at these "sign em hes available" threads, but this signing makes sooooooooooooooo much sense. Anderson at RT with Walker at left would shut Peters and his agent up, and make this line much more solid heading into the season (sorry Kirk Chambers)

      He'll want to start somewhere. Here, after Peters reports, he'll be a backup.

          We could move stuff around.


          LT- Peters, Doc, Butler, Walker, Willie. Or see if Willie can play Guard.

            They're not going to be interested in Willie Anderson at his asking price, unless Jason Peters gives them indication he's not playing this season.

              shut up.

              Anyone on this board with brains could understand why we would need to sign this guy. We face two very good pass rushing teams in the first two weeks of the season, and no one has even heard from our best OL since December.

              This isn't a typical "i've heard his name, so lets sign him"

              This fills a legitimate need on the roster.

                are you insane?
                They're going to move alll these guys around a week before the season starts?

                BUtler at center? Walker or Anderson at guard?

                  I can't imagine he'd be asking for that much Pat. Give it about 24 hours as his agent calls around the league. Most offers should be pretty lowballed because of his age, and the Bills may be the only team to offer him a starting spot right away

                    If you have plans of moving forward with Peters in the fold this season you don't sign this guy.

                    If you don't think Peters will show up, you should be on the phone with Willie's agent right now.

                    Period.

                      There already been talk of Butler to tackle or center. So thats not a big change.

                        Just because you made Butler a center on Madden, doesn't mean he can do it in real life.

                        Hell I turned Charlie Frye into the second coming of Joe Montana.

                        As much as I realize we need an upgrade at C, Butler ain't it.

                            We don't even want to pay Peters, why would we pay a guy who is looking for better than $4 million/per anyway? Makes no sense.
