I think a big need for us this year will be TE so I picked 2. Also with Mixon coming into his contract year I also see us taking a RB, maybe not as high as the second but I really like Swift and couldn't pass on him.
1 - Joe Burrow, QB - LSU
33 - D'Andre Swift, RB - Georgia
65 - Prince Tega Wanogho, OT - Auburn
107 - Ben Bartch, OT - St. John
147 - Cheyenne O'Grady, TE - Arkansas
180 - Colby Parkinson, TE - Stanford
215 - Jauan Jennings, WR - Tennessee
I've got a few questions to ask you.
Why do you think the Bengals would double up on 2 positions? We can definitely use an OT and a TE, particularly since we we only have 2 TEs on the team right now, but 2 TE's? Do you think we're going to go into the season with 4 TEs or 3 and 1 on the Practice squad?
We need an upgrade at RT, and Prince would fit that bill in time, but why Ben Bartch also? I don't think we need this many drafted OTs when we might be able to find good talent in another position here, don't you?
D'andre Smith in the 2nd? Where does he fit in? Giovanni Bernard, Joe Mixon and Trayveon Williams are already on the team, and Joe wants to stay in Cincy, and we won't have to break the bank to keep him if you've seen the type of deals other RBs have signed this year, he won't cost THAT much that we'd have to draft his replacement.
Lou still needs at least another LB. We only have like 3 on our roster. We do need another or else there could be defenses of 3 down lineman and 8 corners or something.
I'm not trying to bash or anything, I think if the Bengals did very little in FA this draft could be close to accurate, but I think the Bengals are going to try to give Lou at least one more piece, and give Joe a couple more weapons to throw to since he thrives in 5 WR sets.
