Jacksonville Jaguars offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski said RB Maurice Jones-Drew is not doing himself any favors by skipping organized team activities, especially with a new offense in place. "It's not helping him by not being here, he'll have a lot of learning to catch up on," Bratkowski said. "But yet, he's a gifted and talented player and I'm sure he can get caught up. It's certainly not helping him. Whether it's hurting him or not, that remains to be seen."

Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski's job appears to be safe this offseason based on head coach Marvin Lewis' comments about making changes to the coaching staff, reports Joe Reedy, of The Cincinnati Enquirer. "They're clamoring for heads and I understand that. Right now at this point I'm not ready to give them heads yet and we'll see what happens," Lewis said. "I understand the frustration. If we lop some heads maybe we'll get better but maybe we wouldn't but that's what I'm looking at. Minimal might make things better and more productive. Making major changes rather than an overhaul of the system. A new system is harder than an overhaul and looking how we do it."

"I think he did a good job. A good job," said Bratkowski. "The good part about it was that he continued to get better and that's what we were looking for. We wanted progress on a constant level, and he did do that. His last three games were his three best games. It's a shame he missed the three games after that because it would have been fun to continue to watch his maturation."

Geoff Hobson, of Bengals.com, reports Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski is excited about having RB Chris Perry return healthy next year. "He's really a unique player," Bratkowski said. "He's like having another receiver on the field. He's such a good route runner, that you get him isolated against a linebacker or safety, and it causes them problems. (Third down running back) Kenny Watson did a nice job for us this season doing that type of thing, but we think Chris can take it another level." Perry was limited to just two carries and three receptions this season because of injury.

The Cincinnati Enqurier reports the Bengals are shopping for rookie and free agent QBs and appear headed for a four-way competition at training camp. As previously reported, the team is interested in free agent QBs Brad Johnson, Gus Frerotte, Jon Kitna and Scott Mitchell, coach Dick LeBeau and offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski said Saturday, They would also be interested in Rob Johnson if he loses the QB battle in Buffalo. On the draft front, LeBeau likes Purdue's Drew Brees, and Bratkowski is high on Brees, Mike McMahon of Rutgers and Sage Rosenfels of Iowa State. The team will bring back QB Akili Smith and it also looks like they may be able to re-sign Scott Mitchell. If the team waits to the middle rounds to draft a QB, Josh Heupel could be there for them.
