Never been a huge fan of him. But by the looks of it, he seemingly has a pretty nice bond with a few of our key players right now. If he can keep his mouth shut, he will certainly only help us out.

Hmm that would be a good trio of wide receivers shit lol. Hopefully something can happen to make him a lion. But for right now dont see it.

I don't think he'd make you guys too much better positioning wise right now, but he would definitely make that offense more dangerous. That being said, do you guys really think that the Lions and Ocho-Cinco would be any different than it is with Cincinnati? Sorry, but the dude has a bad attitude and no matter where he's playing it won't change much in my opinion. Could be an interesting fit though.

I agree, Chad cant come in and just think hes the big man on campus. He is going to have to change and I dont think he can. And if he does start yapping his mouth off and saying stupid things, whose going to stop him? Stafford? Johnson? Idk who would take that leadership position.

I think if he went to the Lions he wouldn't be pissy and shit. Lots of players that have left the Bengals have said its a horrible organization to be in. The bad attitude has been going on for years even when they were winning he wanted out because he doesnt like the bengals organization, but we will see. Could happen, but probably wont.

He's definitely a much better option than Bryant Johnson, but right now, I don't see this happening. I wouldn't mind it, especially if he doesn't run his mouth. Which is a big if.

Mayhew is obviously going to have to have an extended talk with him before we do sign him, if we choose too.
Should be interesting to see how this unfolds.

Chad Ochosucko cracks me up. He's complained about being on a losing team that has had two division titles in his time in Cincinnati and yet he'd be happy going to a team that hasn't been in the playoffs since 1999? Sure, the team is a lot better now than then but I find it funny. If we could get rid of him for a decent draft pick, I'd be very happy. Is all he would do is join the team and try to take it over, it's always been all about Chad and that will never change, no matter what organization he plays for. His attention-seeking ways are not good for any team, he'd probably ruin what the Lions have going right now. But, if the Lions can get him off the team, I'm all for it happening.

Bleacher Report is about as knowledgeable as this message board. Nobody there knows anything.

I could see him in Detroit. I like Ochocinco...he's so funny. I honestly don't think he's much of a problem anymore. Last few seasons he has seemed fine.

Because BR is stupid. I can post something there and call it a article.

Lions wont get Ocho.

Simple.

Hes also talked about going to the Jets and Pats on twitter, doesn't mean its happening. It's just Ocho being Ocho.

Dont get your hopes up, chump.

Considering I don't have my hopes up, I think I'll be okay.

Child please, I'm not even gonna attempt to backtrack on all the shit you/david have said regarding Free Agents.

It's gotten to the point whenever Me or Jake talk about Free Agents on aim, we go "What are we even talking about this for, its already written in stone, they're taking their talents to detroit".

I don't think Ocho has a problem taking a back seat anymore... He did to TO - I'm sure he will to Calvin (even if he's younger... He knows that Calvin is much better than he is).

Lol, good for you guys.
I like how you take everything I say and take it completely out of context.
Just cause I say Detroit should go after them, doesn't mean I think they will actually sign them.

You're right on that, Bleacher Report isn't something I'd look into much. You are also right about him talking about going to a new/different team every day. One moment it's the Patriots, then it's the Raiders, then it's the Lions etc. I don't care where he goes, if indeed he does end up leaving.
