ROGERS TRADE OFF
Posted by Mike Florio on February 29, 2008, 8:18 p.m.
The trade between the Lions and the Bengals for defensive tackle Shaun Rogers is apparently off.

According to Mike O’Hara of the Detroit News, the deal was not consummated and the Lions will be looking to send Rogers elsewhere. The two teams had agreed that Rogers would head to the Bengals for a third-round and a fifth-round pick.

In our view, that’s not bad news for the Bengals. Maybe it means that someone within the organization raised an alarm about the 2007 allegations against Rogers regarding his conduct in a strip club. Though he wasn’t charged, is that really the kind of guy that the team should be signing giving its recent history of struggles with off-field issues?

No thanks. I'll pass on Shaun Rogers. Let's go get a DT in the draft.

How bout a 4th ... and we call it even.... Rogers is the best defensive player on the Lions right now and a top 5 DT....... I would love to see this guy in the Black and Gold!!

Good player and good fit for the new Vilma. Go get him.

Don't have a 4th (see new Vilma thread). Pass - I think this draft will be better than most expect.

Same reaction I had.

Actually i think we have ALL our picks, Vilma is for a pick NEXT YEAR..

 

[BoNcHiE]

Noone actually knows what pick we gave up for Vilma. There are conflicting rumors and noone knows the truth.

Correct.. the pick for Vilma is for next year... I would trade our 4th this year in a heartbeat for Rodgers!! Get er' done Loomis!!

 

[MSUSousaphone]

So he WAS being traded for a 3rd AND a 5th......I don't think a 4th gets it done.

 

[Blue]

We need him or someone like him. Granted, without the baggage. He's worth a shot though.

 

[MSUSousaphone]

Too late.
