Bottom line is, he has a contract, and if wants to play this year, it's going to be wherever Cincinnati decides he's going to play.I don't really get the impression he wants out of Cincinnati; I think he just wants more money. He's outperformed his contract, and wants to be compensated for that. Cincinnati has spent a lot of money already this year, and doesn't feel they can afford to give it to him. I think it's just business.I also suspect that the reason the Bengals gave him permission to arrange a trade was not to give him a chance to see what's out there for him - it's to give him a chance to see what isn't out there, so that he's more motivated to take what they're offering. Seems pretty clear by now that he's not in as much demand as he'd hoped, and might be more willing to make a deal.</blockquote>
