I realize that I created a separate thread to discuss all the cuts this weekend but I think the Bengals cuts deserve special mention because of the caliber of players cut. Rudi Johnson was one of the league's top backs less than two years ago, so here's another data point in our argument that running backs are generally overrated and overpaid. Still, I would be shocked if Chris Perry makes it through an entire season as the starter. Willie Anderson was in the Pro Bowl two years ago, but he has injury issues and demonstrates just how quickly football players can go downhill because of age. Deltha O'Neal can still help someone out there, although he'll have to take a pay cut. And Ahmad Brooks -- wasn't he supposed to be a great prospect when he came out a couple years ago? He's played well so far, so I don't understand this move. The Bengals really believe that Dhani Jones is a better middle linebacker than Brooks?
