Think Burrow will be more than fine, he took a lot of punishment last year making his O-line look much better than it was.

Completely understand that mindset, it gets imbedded in you being a Bengals fan.

I saw Blankenship miss quite a few big kicks last year, doesn't surprise me.

I think Moss will have lots of calls if not drafted.  I've said it a few times today, but I'd really like Ahmad Wagner as a UFA TE.  He's at that spot where he can be a small TE or a big WR, his comparison was Auden Tate.  He's only played one year of football, but was a 6'7 basketball player before.  I think if you can develop him, you have someone special that you can line up at TE or in the slot.  Players who can line up in multiple spots are becoming more important than ever, and his hands are amazing!

This was a fun thread for all three days of the draft. Go Bengals!

He had two season ending injuries on each knee. Not exactly a steal. As an NFC scout put it, "He's got a motor and he's smart and active. You get a little worried about any player who has had two season-ending knee injuries."

Perfect for a 7th round gamble.

So far this offseason the defense has gotten:

1 DT
1 DE
1 Safety
2 CB
5 LB

I may have missed a player or 2 but noteworthy is all the new arrivals are good tacklers and on the new LBers 3 are considered good at pass coverage.

Who is the 5th LB after Bynes and the 3 draftees?

ps they also signed a load of other corners to compete at the back end of the roster: that one from CFL (Rose?), Sims and Tony Brown a waiver claim after the season

Your welcome. But just remember, I don't have jokes. I'm quite a serious individual...

My bad, there were 4. Also add 1 CB as I had LeShaun Sims listed as LB not CB.

I would like to see them sign Micheal Warren of the Bearcats if he is not drafted

OT Alex Taylor hope we sign him.

Trey Adams is still undrafted after 243 picks....he's dropped really far. Is there an issue with him? I thought I heard him being projected as a mid round pick.

He only played one game Wink

They literally sat him super long and many were saying that he should've gotten a few reps here and there, instead of sitting him and then throwing him to the wolves.

Is that the RB? Only got to see one Bearcat game last year where they lost big time to OSU?

Liked their RB and of course Deguara the TE who got drafted mid rounds.

I just think Rodney is sadly injury prone, sucks cause he is as smooth as silk when healthy.

Heard he is way ahead of schedule though this Offseason working his ass off.

Injured.

He comes out last year, he's a 1st or 2nd rounder. Comes out this year, injuries kill him.

Ah makes sense.  Thanks for the update.  Like FlemLo says all the time, little to no upside to not going pro right away.  Feel bad for the kid.
