You make some great points and gave me some new names to checkout for sure.

With 3 weeks until the draft, I am all about fluidity and the ability to change my mind.

My rebuttal to the note on Chase being 6' is that he has a very big/strong frame for that height (207lbs) where some of the other draftees are really slight of frame. I think guys like that are a wicked handful for NFL DBs because Chase is super physical and beats the jam hard. He reminds me of a bigger, faster, stronger Steve Smith.

I think Bateman is an interesting prospect for sure. If I had to gamble. I would take the outside bet that Mashall goes before Waddle. I think he ran too good to be there in the 2nd, unfortunately.

The bright side for the Bengals is there isn't a bad choice. Pitts, Sewell or Chase any of the three is an instant upgrade.

I was all in on team Sewell and still lean that way but I am definitely on the fence between him and Pitts as Pitts is just such a unique weapon. 

Plenty of options and plenty of ways to go. The sad part is this shows how bad the roster is overall for talent.
