Probably every Bengals fan has heard or either seen that the organization is interested in T.Old, Antonio Bryant, and Brandon Marshall.  But here’s the thing, there is only one receiver that actually help us in the long run and I think we all know who that is, Brandon Marshall.

This decision of picking up Marshall should be a piece of cake. Even the NFL analysts say Marshall would be a perfect fit for Cincinnati. So why don’t you just give up the first round pick for a proven NFL receiver instead of trying to draft one that may not develop into the kind of receiver we need, seeing that you already made that mistake two years ago passing up DeSean Jackson and drafting Jerome Simpson.  I’m not saying that T.Old won’t help us or even Antonio Bryant but there is issues with both of them.  First of all T.Old is 36 and is getting slower coming off the line of scrimmage, also you have to think about all the chaos he has brought to the other teams he played for.  Then you have Antonio Bryant, he’s a good receiver when he’s healthy,  but the fact that he’s injury proned could hurt us more than he could help us.  So ask yourself Mr. Brown, what’s going to help us in the long run, is it going to signing a great old receiver for one year or maybe signing an ok receiver that it’s going to hurt us when he gets hurt, or you could go with the smart choice and go with Brandon Marshall who has just begun his great career and will help keep the Bengals on top of the AFC North and NFL for years to come.  So I’m going to speak for myself and the rest of Bengals Nation, give up the first round pick and sign Brandon Marshall because most likely we’ll regret it at the end of next season.
