3-18-2013: Adam Greenberg, College Basketball Dancing, Billy Corben, Orson Charles & More!
Hello boys and girls.
Tonight on SILVERMAN: On Sports, we had it all. Inspirational story, basketball dancing, voice of reason in an unreasonable world and pro football during the off season.
Leading off, from the Baltimore Orioles (hopefully) Adam Greenberg. Greenberg is the feel good story of the year. In 2005 while playing for the Chicago Cubs, Adam was hit by the very first pitch...
Tight bond, opposite sidelines
Before Sunday's Browns-Bengals game in Cincinnati, Bengals rookie tight end Orson Charles will be seeking out Browns tight end Ben Watson because Charles thinks he owes Watson one.
A hug, that is.
Charles, 21, and Watson, 31, were obviously never teammates at the University of Georgia. But a mutual friend in the Georgia program put the two in contact in the summer of 2010, and...

Marvin Lewis on rookie TE Orson Charles: better receiver than expected
During his chat with fans through the Cincinnati Enquirer, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis admitted that rookie tight end Orson Charles ability as a receiver has surprised him during offseason workouts.
Orson has great physical tools. He has been a better receiver than I expected thus far so I'm excited to watch him continue to grow during training camp and the...

Orson Charles exceeding Bengals coaches' expectations
As late as a few days going into the 2012 NFL Draft, many analysts had former University of Georgia tight end, Orson Charles, slated as a fringe first to second round draft pick in mock drafts. He was labeled as a "finisher" after catching and running with the ball, as well as a physical specimen. An unfortunate DUI incident had Charles slipping into the fourth round...
NFL Rookies Under The Radar: Bengals TE Orson Charles
Bengals rookie tight end Orson Charles could turn out to be a real steal for the Bengals.
Today is the 1st in a series of 10 Rookies who may be considered Underdogs but I think can be contributors or in some cases very good NFL players.
My First Pick of Underdog Player to watch this season is Tight End Orson Charles from the University Of Georgia, who was picked by the Cincinnati...
Re-Valuing the Tight End
Sorry, this is not a post about women in yoga pants. Although maybe I should file that idea away for another day. (That’s a joke, honey, I swear!)
The value of the running back continues to wane in the modern NFL. The shift to the exciting (and very marketable) passing game, plus the physical toll paid by backs, is slowly draining the value from spot. And the tight end position...
Bengals sign Charles, Dye
Tight end Orson Charles and safety Tony Dye signed with the Bengals. Charles was a fourth-round pick out of Georgia while Dye was signed as an undrafted rookie out of UCLA. Charles had 94 catches for 1,370 yards and 10 touchdowns in three seasons at Georgia.
Bengals Sign 4th Rd Pick TE Orson Charles
The Cincinnati Bengals signed fourth-round tight end Orson Charles to a four-year contract. Charles is a former University of Georgia standout whose draft stock took a hit this spring when he was arrested for driving under the influence. The 6-foot-3, 250-pounder caught 94 passes for 1,370 yards and 10 touchdowns. The junior was an All-Southeastern Conference selection. The Bengals...
Who Makes The Cut? TE Edition
There were two moves in the draft that very few of us saw coming: the selection of Brandon Thompson in round 3 and the selection of Orson Charles two picks later in round 4. Neither was a pick based on need, but both were great value picks who deepen strengths of the team.
I like the selection of Charles. The scouting report on him is really good, and his presence automatically...
