Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Looking to 2007, with Perry facing more major rehabilitation and unable to put weight on his left ankle, the Bengals decided to invest their second-round draft pick in another running back -- Auburn's Kenny Irons -- who could complement featured back Rudi Johnson. The Bengals also re-signed steady Kenny Watson as a free agent. He will challenge for playing time alongside Irons behind Johnson.
