Harsh... But funny. Nothing against the kid personally. But if there's one thing I can't stand on draft day, it's overreaching. Irks me to no end. All that aside, welcome aboard Nick! Shut all the doubters up and make us proud. WHO DEY!

Watching a 90s movie with an 80s rat tail....cool.

Just seemed too early for this guy. Looked at some film and he whiffed on tackles 3 times in a row. There were just too many good players left on the board.

My favorite part of the video was when he was asked who influenced him the most in life and his response was "Goober" from the Andy Griffith show

Funny how when a player is drafted much lower than all the "experts" predicted no one suggest that all 32 NFL teams were wrong.
But when a guy is drafted much earlier than all the experts predict then for soem reason the team is considered wrong and all the "experts" are considered to be right.
The fact is that many other NFL teams may have had Vigil ranked just as high as the Bengals.

The rumor was the Saints really liked him and we're going to take him in the top of the 4th. Seriously, it is funny everyone is convinced they know more because they read some draft reports or watch some tape. As our LB coach said they played the same front and he can come in and play day 1 if needed. He sounds like the heir to SAM when Dansby is done as Dawson and Burffict are both WILL but one could move inside.

On bengals.com they said the Packers were going to take him right after us. They ended up taking the lesser of the two USU backers.
People forget Ray M. is getting up there in age also....and has missed games due to injury too. So depth here is not a bad thing. With a team like the Bengals who have a deep roster, not every pick will be for an automatic starter. The middle and late rounds are for depth and then some players show they are better and play themselves into starting.
