Some of you dipshits really need to educate yourselves or STFU. Period.
Teams are looking at Smith as a guy that won't last much longer and Cincy is making little effort to resign him right now.
He will be good another 2 years, maybe, at most. Team know this and are not willing to fork over the big bucks to him. Not what he wants.

Are Cincinnati Bengals losing interest in Andre Smith?
The Cincinnati Bengals might be ready to move on from free-agent offensive tackle Andre Smith.
ProFootballTalk.com cited a league source Monday in reporting that "the Bengals are now inclined to see if they can find a cheaper and younger replacement for Smith via the draft."
The Bengals have tried to bring the former first-round pick back into the fold, but Smith is looking for more money than the Bengals are willing to offer.
SI.com's Peter King wrote last week that Smith's agents said the Bengals' offer "stinks," adding that the door is wide open for another team to secure the right tackle's services.

We haven't seen reports of another interested team, which would put Smith in a tough spot if the Bengals do decide to move on.

Smith has gotten so fat and lazy no other NFL team is showing interest and Cincy has not yet resigned him. They were talking about it on the radio today as well. He even has a weight clause in his contract that he has failed to meet again.
So fat and lazy that he was the best on the planet last year

According to the Bengals' official website, there was no imminent deal between the team and Smith, who was rated the best right tackle in the NFL last season.

I dont see anything about him being fat and lazy.
This just proves how cheap the Bengals owner is

I heard something about that.
Maybe the word should get out to recruits, huh?

There are a lot of things you don't know

Maybe you should take your own advice and clean out the sand in your vagina.

As I have already posted, there are first hand accounts that Saban's practices arent that physically demanding comparatively speaking.
Where did you hear this?
I don't believe it.

Kareem Jackson has started 44 of 47 career games in Houston. He had 4 INTs last year with 53 tackles on one of the best defenses in the league.
Andre Smith is one of the best RTs in the NFL and will likely re-sign with the Bengals. Most believe they will relent to his demands, because his departure leaves a big void.

I would suggest you educate yourself a bit, but I guess you rather spit out bullshite all day about Alabama. You come off as a pretty smart guy, but you're so eat up with envy it is hilarious.

For one, Saban doesn't allow anyone to be tackled to the ground in practice. Only scrimmages. That alone would make me think that Billick is full of shite.

Take it up w/ the journalists on ESPN; we're just noting what they're reporting. Sheesh, lighten up! I didn't say Saban is a little prick that only cares about himself, is an egotistical narcissistic douchebag, and abuses his players ... ESPN did.

Actually it was just an unfortunate addition of 1941. Those from the 1920s and 1930s were already recognized as "wire service titles" prior to the poll era.

The only true "bust" has been Rolando and that mostly due he might be crazier than Vince Young on meth.
The Saban players from Bama that have been draft haven't really been in the league long enough to get a bust tag. That being said some have been probowl ready and even played in a probowl and some have just been pretty quiet but still contribute. Hell Upshaw made one of the biggest plays in the Super Bowl and was about 2 tackles away from possiblely being defensive MVP. But whatever Billick has his opinions and NFL owners, GMs, and coaches have theirs. So what does Billick do now?

HOW BOUT UPSHAW, DARIUS, KILLING IT NFL STARTING PLAYERS!
No. Upshaw now having a SB Ring doesnt count because Zach Etheridge also has one. Also Nick Fairley had comparable numbers to Darius and he played less games and next to Suh
Saban can get players to the NFL but they mostly disappear after their rookie contract. Saban players are the equivilant of Duke basketball players and USC QB's
