Shaun Rogers Trade Falls Through
In what was supposed to be a sure thing, it appears that the trade of Shaun Rogers to Cincinnati has fallen through. Instead, a different deal has evolved. It would appear that the Browns are going to be dealing for Rogers in return for a third round draft pick and CB Leigh Bodden. He's coming off a 6 INT season, also his first season as a full-time starter. He clearly has great potential to be productive starting CB in the NFL, but the coaching staff in Cleveland soured on him after this season. In the end, I think this is a much better trade for Rogers than the one offered by the Bengals. Bodden will be able to start immediately in the Detroit secondary and is certainly better than a 5th round draft pick. I'll five the Lions credit for this one, it's not a half bad deal.
