has he signed with anyone?

we could sure use him right now unless he is wanting
some absolutely rediculous money.

he was in browns camp and played well so i dont think its
an injury situation.

dude is an ALL WORLD center and most likely a pro bowl
guard.

is he still available?
 
What happened? Here is what happened: He had a bad knee injury, and now he's simply a shell of his former self that no team wants nor should take a chance on. Sorry folks, but Bentley is done.
 
Free agent LeCharles Bentley's playing days "appear to be over," according to Browns beat writer Tony Grossi.
Bentley is currently working as a volunteer coach at a Cleveland high school after failing to catch on in training camp despite visits with the Rams and Lions. If this is it for Bentley, 29, he'll finish his career with 57 starts, two Pro Bowls, and one knee that was surgically repaired several times over.

...and he shot himself in the foot by commanding too much money. Had he accepted a one year tender at vet minimum he would have had a job this year and chance to get a larger contract next year.
 
yep, we'll holla at Mr. Bentley...it's a damn shame the Browns can't get their staph infection business sorted out.
 
Why do people still bring up his name... He CANNOT help us and we, as well as every other team in the league WILL NOT sign him due to two things... 1) He still thinks he is a starter in this league and is commanding top tier money. 2) He simply no longer has any talent
 
well COBRA, he played well in the browns camp THIS YEAR!

he would have been starting except the kid who took his place
at center was playing real well and they didnt want to disrupt
that harmony.

THEY OFFERED HIM A STARTING GUARD JOB COBRA!!

looks like someone hasnt been keeping up with the NFL huh?

he turned it down, didnt want to play guard and felt since he
was playing well and his knee wasnt bothering him that he should
have his center gig back.

they parted ways.

i know he wanted ASTONOMICAL money. and i dont blame teams
for not wanting to shell out huge for a guy coming off a big time
injury. but at some point i thought some team would budge or
lecharles would.

i have never heard ONE THING about him failing a physical with
any team he visited. didnt he visit us early on? all i ever heard
is no one liked his salary demands and he wouldnt budge.

oh well. to bad for whatever reason.
 
How bout Mckiney s bro, the one we signed from Houston, the center...is he still on the team or was he cut?
