Honestly, I am just preparing myself for it in case Arnold is the pick like Soonerpeace has been hinting at. Whether people believe it or not I
do believe Sooner knows somebody in the somewhat inner circle at PBS. Arnold is a Corner who sticks like glue to WR's and played the other
team's #1's and played well in doing it otherwise he wouldn't be mentioned as such a can't miss prospect.
I like Mitchell a bit better because of his length and he is more of a Zone corner, but Arnold like I said might be there unlike Mitchell and did
play with Jordan Battle at Bama.
The Bengals are always interested in a good Corner, don't know why they wouldn't be.
Not what I want as I think CTB and Turner will be just fine.
I want Murphy the most at 18 if Fuaga is gone the closer we get to the Draft. Latham scares me a bit not working out and Mims and only
playing about 1/3 the snaps is also a little concerning. Guyton just doesn't impress me when watching his film.

In this draft, they have met with 1 corner and 1 safety. When you have a limited-size scouting staff a team like the Bengals will focus in on position groups. At least that's my theory, so it's kinda the point of this thread. If they meet with a ton of day 1 and day 2 offensive tackles and no corners, what information does that tell me about their focus? Can we establish a model of the data to provide insights in this draft process and future drafts.
Good points, not looking at many Corners says we aren't near as interested this year. Sainristil fits like a glove and should be a mid round
pick and I expect him to be a Bengal along with McKinnley Jackson. We want good character in our players and Captain like status from
what we have seen in the Taylor/Anarumo era.
