Blocking TE who was a team Captian at Cordell's alma matre I’m also feeling this possibility… I also kinda like Purdue TE Payne Durham… I don’t see a bunch about him, not really flashy but should be a good late option.

Same, I think this is going to end up being the best pick of the draft. I could see him also being the most important pick if he ends up starting for us at some point.

What is impressive is that between the Bengals pick in the 3rd and their pick in the 5th, there was only one RB taken. Thus, by not reaching in the 3rd, they basically had the entire field of RBs left in the 5th.

(04-29-2023, 04:10 PM)Nepa Wrote: The assessment posted above stated: "inconsistent blocking reps on tape, either missing the blitzer or struggling to square and sustain." Are we sure he is good in pass protection? A few times he missed a blitzer, it happens when you have over 100 pass blocking snaps...

He is a good pass catcher too and yeah, can carry the load more so than say a little guy like Keaton Mitchell.

Unlike taking a guy like Gibbs, who is smaller and probably cannot handle a weekly RB1 role in iur offense, Chase Brown could. He is not perfect.
But good speed, 3rd in nation in rushing, 2nd in forced missed tackles, and at least a willing guy in pass pro with decent hands. I can work with that. Still probably RB2/RB3 battle with Williams until the fumbles get sorted. But RB1 potential is there.

Another TE gone. Durham to Tampa.

I could see him also being the most important pick if he ends up starting for us at some point. I think so too, as others stated, the only concern with Chase Brown is the fumbles. He can work on this. But he is solid every where else. This guy could be starting for us sooner rather than later. Him being a good pass protector makes him fit this team better than Mixon.

I live near Champaign, Il. This is going to be a fun guy to watch for me. Love the pick.

Brown is awesome value in the 5th and could easily outperform the majority of backs drafted ahead of him. This draft is shaping out really well for us. I know some are worried about TE but still time
To get one and Brate and Hunter Henry are most likely June cuts who would be good TE additions to our roster. I trust our front office.

He is not perfect. I think the fumbles were a problem at times because he refuses to go down, he will learn from that in the NFL. One thing about Mixon that I DO like is that he isn't a fumbler at all.

Well they needed a Perine replacement so I’d bet they scrutinized his pass pro extensively
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
