I could watch the Ole Miss DLine all day. I started due to Princely Umanmielen DE, but now I have a man-crush on JJ Pegues. A former TE turned NT, he runs a 4.86 at 325 lbs. He is the best run defender on a line including the aforementioned Umanmielen and DT Nolen, another top 50 prospect.
My favorite part is that he also runs the wildcat and has 9 carries with 5 TDS, plus serves as a FB and TE blocker when needed.

Fannin Jr., TE from BGSU is the MAC player I'd love to see end up on the Bengals.

I had just gotten through two Ole Miss all-22 games and you're right they are up there with SC and A&M as top DLs. Walter Nolen is a monster and it wouldn't surprise me if he's high on the Bengals board in '25.

I haven't gotten to Fannin yet although I have been keeping up with his stats. What is his typical alignment?

They put him on the line just by the tackle, but also split him out like a TE/WR hybrid. He's athletic and, I offer to the casual fan, appears to have great pass catching skills. I'm not sure how his blocking abilities translate to the pro game. He is 6'4" and a good route runner as well. Don't think much though about anything I am posting. I like football and follow the MAC, but I am not super knowledgeable about the intricacies of the game.

I do think it would be wise by the Bengals to go with a Chase/TE roster building approach if they aren't comfortable paying big money to WR1 and WR2. TEs tend to make less than WRs.

While typing my reply to you, I Googled to see what info is available on him. I found this recent article:

https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2024/10/26/chiefs-scouting-harold-fannin-bowling-green-falcons/

Savion Williams is a guy to keep an eye on. Made Feldmans freak list too.

?Won't be a prettier-looking wideout in 2025 #NFL Draft than TCU's Savion Williams (6036v, 228v, 33 1/4 arm, 9 3/8 hand).

Cordarrelle Patterson is the comp.

Credit @TCUFootball staff for running him 18 times as wildcat QB over past two games.

There's "wow" type talent when he… https://t.co/o9xOVhD2JW pic.twitter.com/WtbOhkbDDL

What’s thoughts on Tyler Warren?

He's a good prospect, but we have an emerging Eric All. Bengal fans should be zoned in on interior OL, DE, Safeties.

True, but Erick all is more of you’re move the/hback(at least currently being used) Warren is more big wr type. Not sure we’re gonna be in on safety. Bell is old now but still think they like stone and battle. Probably mid rounds.interior online specifically kappa has started to slow down specifically. And de 100% wr too.

I'm not discounting Warren's quality as a player, just suggesting that the Bengals should focus on interior OL, DE and Safety.

Tyler Warren is going to be a TE-Y more like a Pat Freirmuth. I would guess he tests more like a Sam Hubbard athlete not explosive or fast but body control through the roof. 

Erick All is in a half way point between a Y and F/H it will be interesting to see his development as I think he eventually ends up in that Y more often. If your looking for a big body receiving TE Bryson Nesbit late or I still haven't watched his All-22 but Harold Fannin Jr. shows speed and quicks in some clips I have seen.


Edit: I'm surprised your not pushing Emeka Egbuka or Quinshon Judkins Jpoore lol. I do have to say Egbuka is my favorite WR of the class so far for the Bengals offense.

Woo football day sorry I haven't gotten the matcups the last couple weeks (working 60s with random 5 hour drives too and from home ugh) but most of the games tend to be big conference matchups this time of year.

Today we got Ohio State vs Penn State, Texas A&M vs South Carolina, Tennessee vs Kentucky, Louisville vs Clemson, Iowa vs Wisconsin, Arizona vs UCF.

Bengals have people at Ohio State vs Penn State game.

lots of seats for NFL personnel today at Beaver Stadium for Penn State-Ohio State: Ravens (2), Panthers (2), Bears, Bengals, Broncos, Texans (2), Chiefs, Raiders, Rams, Dolphins, Giants (3), Jets, Steelers, 49ers, Titans, Commanders (4).

Marshall Edge Mike Green 6'3 243. He isn't just a speed rusher. He will being the power and hands.

Mike Green of @HerdFB being a bully. Green sets the edge with violence & uses his leverage/strength to throw his blocker into the RB. @Mikegreen42021 stays with the play & gets in on the tackle! @JimNagy_SB #StopTheRun #NFLDraft pic.twitter.com/FpUS3IoE8T

Warren is a do-it-all TE.
He can catch and block.
Heck, he can also pass and even snap.
They had a special on him on the ESPN Gameday Morning show this past Saturday.

He's one of my favorite prospects.

For those who had not seen it.

Omg isn't that like 25% or 33% of the scouting department for the Bengals?! 

Week 11 matchups.

West Virginia vs Cincinnati - The Godfather Dontae Corleone vs the WVU rush offense.
Georgia vs Ole Miss - Georgia OL vs Ole Miss DL
Michigan vs Indiana - just cuz
Maryland vs Oregon - Maryland has a couple WRs (Felton, Prather) and a NT (Jordan Phillips) that will be fun vs the #1 team.
Alabama vs LSU - See the LSU DL vs Alabama OL
Clemson vs Virginia Tech - Aeneas Peebles vs Clemson OL
