Chad Johnson a Skin? Not so fast....

[Sabres244]

How serious are the Cincinnati Bengals about not giving in to Chad Johnson's trade demands?

Serious enough to swat away an offer from the Washington Redskins that could have netted the Bengals two first-round draft picks, team and league sources said.

The Redskins offered its first-round pick, No. 21 overall, and a conditional third-rounder in 2009 that could escalate to a first rounder if Johnson and the Redskins hit certain performance levels, the sources said.

It was not the first time the Redskins approached the Bengals about a deal, but it was the first significant proposal.

Bengals coach Marvin Lewis -- who disputed the report of trade offers for Johnson -- says the disgruntled receiver should keep his word and sit out the season.

Yea Chad's gonna either have to give in or go play some AFL ball. He's locked up until 2011 so it'd be wise for him to just give in IMO.

why should they shit can him?

He's one of the top WRs in the league. Let him sit if he's gonna be a bitch about it.

Bengals are a doomed franchise.
