If Fournette is there at #9, the Bengals Take Him

I don't put that much stock in the combine though either. I like watching the guy run the ball, he is damn good at it.

One of the best in many years, i still like Dalvin Cook better but both of these guys would improve our Offense IMHO.

Fournette is so damn fast once he hits a hole, i haven't seen a back faster, no matter the size.

Dalvin can make people miss and is more dynamic, really like Cook.

Personally, I'm starting to think that Fournette has too many concerns to go in the top 10.  I still like Cook, but maybe not the best value pick for the Bengals in the top 10.  RB is one of those positions where you can find sleepers in the middle, or even late rounds that have the body and skill set to produce in the NFL.  After seeing the numbers on the "top" backs, as well as following their college careers, I'm not convinced that the Bengals should take any back at #9.  Plenty of quality backs throughout the draft.  For example, the late round sleeper that just jumped (literally) onto the radar is Joe Williams from Utah.
