for a 7th round draft pick? what a waste, he could have turned into something special, i think.

That sucks. I've hoarded a few of his '05 Autos waiting for him to get another shot.
At least this means he shouldn't be cut.

So.....we cut Johnson for this guy????

I hope he is better because at least Johnson knows the system.

And we cut some decent guys, not thrilled about a few of the cuts.

Edge Hartwell
Bennie Brazell
Reggie Mcneal
John Busing

plus a bunch of others. Perry got put on PUP. Looks like it will be Rudi, Quincy, Kenny W, and Jeremi as our backs

If it were me, I'd rather have Fitzpatrick than Johnson. His salary should be lower and his upside is much higher than Johnson. The dude actually played well in a game or two in '05 as a rookie when Bulger was hurt.
I think the Bengals made a good deal.

Trust me...there's NOBODY in the NFL that's worse at QB than Doug Johnson ukerr:ukerr: ...I'd rather roll Sammy Baugh out on the field right now at 90+ yrs old and have him play instead of Doug "Legend in his own mind" Johnson. Falcons fans who have followed the team for a few years can attest to that...Johnson SUCKS!
