The draft and the offensive line
#27

Any TE available at 28 has a better chance to start than a RT.  There's no guarantee that a RT is going to be a difference maker, either.  

Both Wright and Jones have work ethic/motivation concerns.  Wright showed up overweight at the Senior Bowl and his Combine measurables indicate that he shouldn't have the lack of range in the run/screen game he shows on tape.  Jones has been a disaster the entire process.  There's no way I would entertain even spending a Day 2 pick on him.  

Honest question here. Let me begin by stating that I am not a fan of selecting Dawand Jones but I would like to hear an explanation to him being a disaster the entire process. He showed up at the combine at a weight far below what many were predicting and the went to the Senior Bowl and manhandled some very good players in one on one drills. I do not want the Bengals to select him but I feel your statement is a bit slanderous of the young man.
