We'll be his 4th team in 4 years. Not getting hopes up for him.

Agree but might mean Hurst is out for awhile. 

Definitely hoping that is not the case, but my buddy who Ive watched games with for 40 plus years has been on Wilcox's bandwagon all year long.

yea, they shouldve promoted *checks notes* .....Thad Moss

interesting they kept a PS spot open with Drue's promotion. I hope it is a spot for Kevin Huber.

Good Bye Tyler....we will always have the photo of Joe up on your shoulder after winning the AFC championship.

Joe Goodberry does a scoring profile for every draft that takes into account production, athletic numbers etc and he was very low on Tyler Shelvin

Extremely low production profile and extremely poor athletic profile.

If he wasn't a gigantic NT, you'd never draft or sign him. But because he's a NT, he's got a chance.

His scoring system gave Shelvin a 61.0 overall grade.

And if you weren't following back then, this is how Shelvin scored for @JakeLiscow and myself predraft.

Basically, he was a low chance to hit. Even for a NT type. pic.twitter.com/L93V0BTwUM

I'm not surprised he didn't work out.

So, to review, this closes the bookon our fantabulous 2019 & 2021 NFL Draft day poor trade streak bonanza.

To be fair to Taylor, he has had some good non-draft day trades (Price to Giants for BJ Hill AND a 7th; Finley + 7th to Texans for a 6th (Chris Evans).

And has drafted excellently to very well overall post 2019, but trading UP for Finley and Michael Jordan (including a pick that turned into Hunter Renfrow for MJ) was brutal. Although we did net Trayveon Williams (and Wren) in the Sample trade down/overreach debacle.

For this one: trading DOWN to get Carman landed us Shelvin and D'Ante Smith.

Enough of that, too much negativity on a great day to be a Bengals fan.

Huber indicated he expected to be signed to the practice squad. Says he wants to continue to mentor Drue while also keeping his own punting sharp.

I support the organization as much as any and more than most, but this stuff has always been something I've hated.

We've just beaten the #1 seed in the NFL and lost our starting TE and we sign a dude such as this to the PS in a world where the likes of Eric Ebron is sitting on the couch. Hell bring Tyler Eifert back, shit Jermaine Gresham is younger than D-Jax and he's helping the Birds

Bengals are thin at TE. Maybe add a decent TE this year draft.

Call Gronk. See if he still wants to play with Joe Burrow.

Got to respect him for not riding off into the sunset and hanging around to mentor the guy who took his job. 

Kevin has been a class act since day one.

Supposedly the Bengals were very serious about drafting Trey McBride in the 2nd round this past draft. I can see us targeting the spot again in the first few rounds this year, barring a FA signing.

Whyle. 3rd Round.

DO IT!

If Mayer is there I think they take him.  But I seriously doubt he is there at pick 32....

Huber is respected outside of Cincinnati. Here fellow former punter McAfee and fellow teammate Hawk kind of slip in some praise for him for just being a great guy. It's nice to see people say positive things like that about someone while they're still playing.
I tried having it queued up around 4:50 where they praise him but Pat does do some of his 'personal experience' teachings early on in the video about kicking in a windy stadium.

And by the time Eric Ebron, who hasn’t played in over a year, gets into football shape, Hurst would be back. We need someone who could be available now if only to play on the scout team. Hudson caught a pass in an NFL game last week.

And this is why, much to Frank's chagrin, I mentioned what was Moss doing. Not that Moss is all that great, but he can catch. If Hurst was lost for the season, I would be looking for an outside TE. As it is, by the time anybody from the outside we bring in gets up to speed with the playbook, Hurst will likely be back and they will be waived. We don't need a replacement, we need a stop gap that can come in and play immediately.
