Could be wrong just read quickly but believe Price was only Center gone in mock before Bengals pick which made it more of an oddity.

Does anybody know much about the kid and how do you feel about it ?

I want a Center in the 2nd round. We should take Ragnow here.

This Mock is rank with Rankin in the 2nd, ewww.

Who knows who that will be, yet still want Edmunds or Wynn the most if they slip to us.

Yeah and i don't like it.

I'm talking stellar, in an intergalactical sort of way.

Honestly, I'd be quite disappointed if they went that route.

Me too, Wynn is a talent.

Would be a great pick at 21 and was for trading down and taking him before we traded for Glenn.

I actually like Wynn better than Hernandez cause of his versatility.




This stuff gets me excited. Man Edmunds just jumps off tape when i watch the guy. Dude is one big, fast sumbitch that
takes great angles and tackles like a mad man. He can even cover, i think he may be a star in the NFL.

Doubt he falls to us though, Roquan might but i just don't see the greatness i see in Edmunds with Roquan even if i
would be just fine with him at 21 too.

Plenty of really good  players have drawn the same kinds of reactions in those reviews over the years so best to take them with a grain of salt.  Some are dead on, but most are not . They're still young guys just out of college and have only been taught at the college level with a few exceptions . Heck, a lot still haven't begun growing facial hair and grown to their full adult sizes .
Anyway, I haven't really watched a lot of college ball in the past few years so kind of tough to make any kind of reasonable assessment. But how often are mock drafts correct about who the Bengals select ? They're all over the place  ..
