Gio is on the Bengals' Radar

Posted: 2/24/2013 9:51 AM

Gio is on the Bengals' Radar 


Cincinnati has the 21st pick in the first round, and the team's beat writer reports today that Gio is getting careful consideration.

IMO, he'd be a great pick for the Bengals. Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis is a straigt-ahead plow with little outside speed and no moves. Gio could be the reincarnation of Ray Rice. The AFC North is a tough division, and a running game is critical.

Would be a good trio with him, Green, and the Ginger

Agreed. This is one of the teams I'd love to see him join as he'd be the missing 3rd component of a young, offensive star trio as GP said.

Is Greg Little with the Bengals? This would be a great team for Gio.

Saw on the ticker that Bush likely won't re-sign with the Dolphins. I would be ecstatic if he gets picked up by the Dolphins. I think he will be much better than Bush.

I don't think Ray Rice is a good comparison for Gio, he seems more like a Brian Westbrook to me. If he ends up on the Bengals it'll probably be their 2nd round pick(37th).

Gio better get used to Lucas Oil Field cuz that's where he's going. Or, to GB. My opinion.

If the Dolphins don't re-sign Bush it's because they trust that Lamar Miller is ready. I doubt they'd use a first round pick on a back. Miami's looking either WR, TE, DE, or CB with their pick, no matter what happens with Bush.

No one knows what will shake out of draft, but I know some scouts who tell me the team that has sent scouts the most to see Gio in person are the NY Jets.
They just switched to a West Coast Offense and also have a need at Punt Returner.
Maybe Coples gets a roomie for the road trips :)

I know most on here hate them, but I would love to see the Cowboys drop Felix Jones and draft Gio, then sign Jacobs or Bradshaw as FAs.

Bruiser back with a change of pace like Gio would be sweet. And I would love to see Gio with the Star on his helmet.

If you run into Gio, please tell him that I, Fedorameses, will be terribly heartbroken if he signs with the Jets. It will personally break my heart to have to root against my all time favorite football Heel.

Tell him I said run as fast as he can away from Mr. Foot Fetish...Anywhere but the Jets, and the Bills.

So you never want to see Gio win a Super Bowl, or possibly not even a playoff game?

I smell a fish fan (no home field advantage) or pats fan (cheaters) in there somewhere. ;)
