Smith wants to sign

by chazerize on Jul 1, 2009 12:41 PM EDT

Andre Smith is claiming that he is wanting to be in camp on time because he will be making a transition in the position he will be playing. As of now he's saying all the right things, but I'm still going to believe it when I see it and he's actually at camp. I'm hopeful that all the picks our signed and ready to go come camp opening.

There will be!

I know he says he doesn’t want a hold and i know the coaches don’t wanna a hold out but there will be. Im going to guess at least a week because he is going to want to pressure them a little bit to get more money. And look at the history of the bengals first pick with marvin, all of them held out besides palmer. Who knows, if they do sign him before camp that could be good omen for the season!!!

He sounded genuine to me,

but he did seem a little scripted. I’m guessing that his agent is promising him a whole plate of Oreos if he holds out. I don’t think he could resist that sort of temptation.

This is our year!

The bengals r old school!

Yea its a business, he deserves to be paid like a top five pick but the bengals like to penny pinch. I expect a week to two weeks hold out. He should at least get what gholston got last year but definitaly not what sanchez is getting this year.
