Nate's 2nd Mock of 2024...

Big fan of Sinnott,  Bortolini, and Sweat, as I've had them at similar points as well. Sweat would be the major joker, as if he panned out, this mock would be incredible!

I am curious, you took two potential returners. Are you moving on from Chuck Sizzle?  Thinking he's (for a year one guy) older and not as much juice left to squeeze out?

Love the Allen pick, as the Bengals need a banger, not a dancer, in the backfield. He doesn't need to hit the homerun, just needs to not fall down at first contact and to fall forward and wear down defenses.  Allen fits the bill. It has been forever since the Bengals had a punishing back, like Icky Woods or Larry Kinnebrew (yes I had a man crush). Be nice to see those days return to compliment Joe's game.

Thanks Rugby. On Chuck Sizzle, he will still have his uses, but you can never have enough dude's that are great in open space. The new rules
make having good Returners a big deal. With Chase, Holani, Chuck and Corley we would have a lot of dangerous weapons not even mentioning
Chase Brown who is incredibly fast.

True on Braelon Allen, been awhile since we had a punishing RB, since Cedric Benson that I can remember. Mixon would punish defenders on 
the edge as he was going out of bounds but I wouldn't call him a punishing back. Samaje had one mean stiff arm, but he only had one year of 
being that punishing Back for us, with Braelon we could have him for awhile. I want to do the same thing to our Division rivals what they try and
do to us every year. Make them dread having to play the physicality of the Cincinnati Bengals.
