They traded back and picked the best ballhawk in the Draft in Jessie Bates III.

In return got 2 3rd rounders back to back and picked Sam Hubbard DE and then Malik Jefferson LB.

Great moves. Mark Walton RB Miami in the 4th was kind of questionable cause i think we are fine at RB but he is a
very good RB that can do it all and would of been like a 2nd rounder if not for his injury last year.

Devontae Harris CB Illinois State is a big, fast, rangy CB, Austin pick for sure.
About 5 picks in Round 5 for Bengals. WHO DEY

Accurate. It was not a bad pick. At all.

I know we have plenty of corners, but maybe this guy was the best value at that pick. Maybe they didn't find any good players at that spot for their needs. Besides, they took Josh Shaw a couple years ago in the fourth round, IIRC, and that guy turned out to be a valuable and versatile player that they use a lot.
"Best of the Rest" - Davontae Harris, CB Illinois State.

Another top FCS corner who lacks some of the physical traits needed to play against NFL competition. Harris runs well and is very physical against the run, but he has some tightness in his hips that will hurt him in man coverage. Has to be a zone guy. May be better off at Safety, where his limitations won't hurt him as much.
Next pick is Glenn pick for moving down in draft so extra pick
Am I the only one that wants to punch that 49's mascot right in the face?

One of the 3rds was ours wasn’t it?
Jones still there lets see if we take him here.
Give me jemarco!
Another commercial while we are on the clock. Ridiculous.
Gotta keep in mind that this is Dennard’s last year on his deal and he’s probably gone.

With pick 54 they took Jessie Bates, S, Wake Forest.  They had the 77 and 78 picks. 77 - Sam Hubbard OSU, 78 - Malik Jefferson LB, Texas ( I believe this was the right order). In the fourth round they took Mark Walton , RB from Miami. With their first 5th round pick they just took Devontae Harris, CB Illinois State.

Thank you very much.   You saved me having to wade through Hob spins for the info.

For crying out loud get Tim settle.
You guys hear that Derrius Guice fell because he got into a shouting match in his interview with the Eagles at the combine?

Yeah the trade just moved us up right behind ours.

Love both those picks BTW. Hubbard and Jefferson were both 2nd round value. Walton too if not for the injury.
