Peter Warrick

[MURP]

per the Bengals website, it says that Warrick is going to be cut this morning.  Assuming he is cut for the sake of talk, should the Birds pursue?     link

ESPN.com is reporting that the Bengals plan to release wide receiver Peter Warrick on Tuesday morning as part of the league-mandated cutdown to 68 players. The move, anticipated for months, comes the morning after Warrick publicly asked the Bengals to release him Tuesday rather than Saturday if they planned to terminate his six-year contract that ended this year with a $2.2 million salary.

The club has not yet officially released its list of cuts that have to be done by 4 p.m. Tuesday.

I voted for no. The guy is a pain in the ass. I would rather them take a flyer on McCants, or another veteran WR that's floating around.

[Wingspan]

no

[mussa]

uhhhh if they have $ left over after signing lewis and westy, then sure why not if we can get him cheap?  depth biatch!  maybe this signing would be the end of pinky...hooray if so!

The guy was unreal at Florida State.

If he's available and healthy, I'd take him for no other reason than his ability to change a game at the return position.

What's the harm?  He's gotta be better than Wilbur or the other stiffs they have on the roster.

[phattymatty]

I say go for it, he can return kicks too.  If we get him cheap it's worth a shot.

[MDS]

Not worth it. We have a big enough drama queen in TO, don't need another one. I'd like to add another reciever, but give me someone who will come in here and accept a 3rd-4th string role, shut his mouth and play football.

warrick>>>>>>>>>>mahe

if youre thinking wr position then id much rather have mccants

[TempleOwl]

Take him, then he can argue with T.O. and keep him from arguing with everyone else.  I was wondering the same thing about Maurice Clarett, should we take a chance on him.  Also, I like the McCants idea.  i haven't seen anything from McMullin so McCants or Warrick for McMullin works for me.

If we get him cheap it's worth a shot.

You'd think coming from a crap team like Cin he'd play for cheap w/a contender who offers him a chance to get playing time. He certainly has the experience to fight off Brown and even Lewis if they come out subpar when the season hits. Let's get him before the Pats sign their 20th recvr!

No offense, but...     Get that dumbass thought out of your head.



As for Warrick? I'm voting no. As others have said, I am concerned enough with TO possibly blowing up this year. Having 2 possible headcases doesn't feel right.

[ice grillin you]

id seriously rather have reno mahe than clarett and its not really close

[Purple_Hayz]

I'd agree that Warrick was a stud at FSU.  That said, he hasn't made a big name for himself in the NFL though being a Bungle certainly hasn't helped him any in that respect.  And as much of a PITA as he could potentially be I doubt that he'd be in TO territory.  I'd tentatively say yes but it's not like I'm going to get an Eskin-style KJ hardon over him or anything.

[Rome]

Warrick's raw talent makes him far superior to any other option the Eagles might be considering.

I'm telling you guys, the fact that he had to play in Cincinnati is what caused him to melt down over the years.  Playing for an organization like the Eagles could be the impetus for him to recharge his career.

At the very least, it wouldn't cost the Eagles much to take a flier on him.

[Mad-Lad]

it's a tough call.  I'd hate for him to keep guys like Reggie off the field, but i'm intrigued as to how good he would be on a quality team.
