Vontaze Burfict signs with...

Bengals signed Arizona State ILB Vontaze Burfict.

We suspect maybe only a handful of teams -- and going plural there might be generous -- had any interest in Burfict at all. The Bengals, never shy about character concerns, were most willing to roll the dice. Burfict was a first-team All-American in 2010, before getting benched as a junior in 2011. You probably already know about his terrible Combine, Pro Day, and failed drug test. He'll be a major long shot to make the Bengals' roster.

How fitting.

Don't touch it.

... you'll be hearing more about this guy in the future, and not in a good way, he's going to be the biggest LB flop since Brian Bosworth, without all the hype but certainly all the drama.

Good for Bengals, but even better for the other teams in the league,

Well, hopefully for them, him not getting drafted has humbled him a little so that his attitude doesn't affect the lockerroom.

Sure the dude is a nut case but I'm almost pulling for the guy to produce after so many people have written him off. I doubt he will but you never know

Not me, he did it to himself. He forced people to write him off with his Jonathan Sullivanesque attitude.

Loser with a capital L!

We need less of these morons, not more.
