Shaun Rodgers acquired by Bengals/Falls Through**EDIT** Deal done with CLE
http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf...incinnati.html
The Cincinnati Bengals, who were not one of the five teams believed to be involved in trade negotiations for Shaun Rogers on Thursday, dealt a third- and fifth-round pick for the defensive tackle on Friday.
The Lions wanted to swing a deal for Rogers before midnight tonight -- when they would've owed him $1 million in a roster bonus.

The Detroit Lions' trade of nose tackle Shaun Rogers to the Cincinnati Bengals was unraveling Friday evening, hours after an announcement that the teams had agreed on a deal.
Originally, the Lions confirmed reports that Rogers was traded to the Bengals in exchange for Cincinnati's third- and fifth-round picks in the April draft.
The Bengals' official Web site posted details of the trade under the headline "Big Deal for Big Man," calling it "one of their biggest deals in history."

However, league sources said later Friday that the trade was not consummated, and that the Lions would be looking to trade Rogers to another team.
There was no comment from Lions officials.
Earlier in the day, after the trade had been announced by the Lions, reporters were told that coach Rod Marinelli and president Matt Millen would not be available for comment.

Corey Williams and Shaun Rogers; two terrors of the NFC North now head to the Browns. Looks like Clevelad might know what they're doing afterall!

It certainly would appear that way, their d-line was awful last season for the 3-4 they ran. Now with Rogers at NT and Williams at end they should have the beef to stop the run a little better.

I dont like rogers as a 3-4 NT at all. a 3-4 NT has to be a high motor guy, and the big knock on Rogers is desire and consistancy
