    They're going to get the potential for a comp pick so it wouldn't be nothing

    Not sure why they refuse to trade players but they moved Dunlap and Ross is trying his best to piss them off enough to move him. He hasn't shown much to be honest... but he's behind some pretty good talent.

    I doubt tweets are helping him on that front.

    They’re not going to get much for a guy who might only get a one year deal.

    Isn't that just what Cincinnati would rather do with everyone? Why get something for a player when you can let them leave for nothing? Like Dalton last year and AJ and Geno next, they seem opposed on principle to getting a return for a player.

    Dunlap had to force his way out but Green and Atkins are Cincinnati legends and may not want to sour their reputations like that.

    I'd be interested in him if the team is really trying to do the "track meet" on offense thing. I don't think he'll ever be a reliable rounded WR, but if you want to really threaten defenses with speed to try and keep them from loading the box, you won't find a much faster potential trio of Hollywood, Duvernay and Ross.

    Wouldn't give up more than a conditional 7th, and next year, much higher than the minimum, but dude can fly and it's not like he's out here dropping balls.
    Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

    They won't get anything cutting him.

    Worth a look?

    Heres his best game from last season. 7 for 158 and two scores.

    Great madden pickup.

    Ross' contract would still cancel out one of their signings, regardless of value.

    They loved Dunlap and did it out of loyalty I think. Just like if Atkins requested a trade they would honor that IMO

    I think the whole organization is like getting blown out in a game and kicking a fg as regulation expires to deprive an opponent of a shutout.
