Again, all this helps me when I make my own trades.....let's see:
Johnson is a 2nd string lb at best, maybe special teams player if he can block. Hale looks like a versatile backup (you didn't say he was a starter so I'm assuming). For two promising young players.....why would cincinatti do this? Johnson sounds like a throw in...Hale may have some use, but is he going to be so valuable to Cincy that they give up on two guys who could be, unless I'm mistaken, future starters? Cincy just drafted MJ? Why in hell would they trade a guy they just drafted? I'd have to say no big time to this trade.
