    The Cincinnati Bengals have agreed to terms on a three-year contract with free agent running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Financial terms were not disclosed. Green-Ellis ran for 1,008 yards and 13 touchdowns and 13 touchdowns in 2010. As a restricted free agent in 2011, Green-Ellis' playing-time was reduced, causing his yardage production to slip to 667 yards, though he'd add 11 rushing touchdowns. The 5-foot-11, 215-pound Green-Ellis will be expected to replace Cedric Benson as the No. 1 back in the Bengals' backfield.

    I hope he does well there. I liked him alot. Stevan Ridley should fill his role well in new England though.

    I guess this means its the end of Cedric Benson in Cinci, I definitely see Benson going to the Steelers after the news about Menndenhall's hecked up knee

    Unfortunately I think this is a GREAT signing for them. With his running style and their oline and scheme, he could be an absolute monster in that offense. I bet he gets a bunch of carries.
