That would be one hell of a draft early with the McCarron trade, love it.

Would fix our running game and put our pass rush over the top. Killing two birds with one draft. :andy:

I know it is easy to be sore at Marv and co for not pulling Ced earlier, giving Sexy a chance earlier, etc.  But the majority of folks that think this is a massive rebuilding year and the Bengals are miles away from being a contender are just being negative.  I understand the frustration, believe me I do, but the core of the team is still very capable.  

You eluded to the addition of Billings, WJIII, and a faster, younger Vigil starting over older retreads as just a few things we already have for next year.  Add the draft and the Bengals, with 11 picks before any AJM trade, and they could very well be one of the top teams in the AFC again.  

This draft will not only be a blast to speculate, simulate, etc. but it will be the most critical draft since the Dalton/Green one of six years ago.
