I wanted Crosby or Jimarco Jones with our first 5th myself, but evidently Pollack doesn't think either would make the team. He must really like Fisher and Hart as much as this might confuse people. Pollack is the guy that knows O-lineman much better than i do. I will let him be the judge.

It shows once again how devastating drafting Og and Fisher was to this team. Damn.

Fisher's heart trouble cut his time short before he could settle in and he did flash some nice plays. Og is just a disaster and Hart is almost as bad.

I have no idea :) RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - TKUHL - 04-28-2018 F So far simply for the fact we had the worst offense last year and we only take 2 offensive players in the first 8 picks. Both players coming off injury. We had the picks to move up in this draft but moved back instead. Most cases we passed on guys that could have helped anyway. Yes we got Glenn but some on here seem to think this new coach can make the guys we already have super stars. I think we are putting way too much faith in this coach and players who already proved their not the answer. As poor as this line has been the past 2 years it's pretty scary that this team obviously dosent think it's as big a problem as we do to continue ignoring the line. This draft and last years draft we are what 16-18 picks with a whopping 2 O Linemen taken. Hard to get excited about that. RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - samhain - 04-28-2018 C+ Not a great draft IMO when you have one of the league's worst offenses and spend 2 of 8 picks on offense in the first 5 rounds. Not addressing OT was a huge mistake. Glenn is a terrific player, but very injury prone. This team is just a Glenn injury away from putting that sack of shit Ogbuehi right back where he was last year, i.e. protecting Andy's blindside and wrecking this team's chances at doing anything offensively. Ced should be thrown in a dumpster along with Bobby Hart and driven out to some farm in Brown county, where the dumpster can promptly be set on fire and buried in a hole in the ground. I never want to see turds like that in stripes again, and it's quite likely to happen now. Also, not sure on the DBs. Bates is a smart player, but kind of a ***** when it comes to tackling. Harris is said to lack the physical traits to be an NFL corner. Lots of flash with little physicality added to the secondary.

I wish I could communicate like this. Only thing I would change is the A+ grade to a B for Phillips because of the small school and he was a man among boys...but, because of that reason, the Bengals got a second or third round talent that will contribute for years. This is my only concern. RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - Nicomo Cosca - 04-28-2018 (04-28-2018, 06:10 PM)samhain Wrote: How about the last two? Last season? 2012 13 games 2013 16 games 2014 16 games 2015 16 games 2016 11 games 2017 6 games He’s missed 18 games out of 96. That’s hardly “very injury prone” RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - Joelist - 04-28-2018 Please do the research on the players, you'll see something different. Glenn's missed time was down to a single injury that got aggravated. He had a spur removal procedure which was successful. He has been cleared and indeed on his Twitter it shows him working out to get ready for camps. Price was just a minor pec tear and should be cleared in June. RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - t3r3e3 - 04-28-2018 B-, maybe C+ Price fills an obvious need, and was the best center on the board. Bates is an upgrade over what they have. I like Reid better, but the Bengals obviously didn’t. It’s fair to wonder if Eric Reid’s peaceful protest soured Mike Brown on his brother. I’m not crazy about Hubbard, although he fills a need. Kind of high to draft a low twitch DE. If the Bengals had a better LB coach Jefferson could be a steal. Too bad Haslett is not regarded highly across the league. The first true head scratcher was Walton. An undersized, mediocre athlete with injury issues? There were better backs available, and far later than Walton. Bottom line is the team did not improve the right side of the o line, did not significantly improve the D line, and did not improve the LB corps enough. Weak points will continue to be weak points. RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - TKUHL - 04-28-2018 I usually get excited about every draft we have, even the year we took Ced and Fisher. This draft however is a complete shit show with the exception of maybe 2 players. Every player we had on that joke of an Oline is garbage and to sit here and think a new position coach is going to make these guys better is just wishful thinking. This is the mindset that kills this team. So they played ok for 2 games, great lets resign Marvin and hang our hat on Glenn and 1 damn pick who could very well be a bust or not even ready for the season. I'm seeing names thrown around like Redmond and Hart to fix positions...please stop RE: GIVE ME YOUR BENGALS DRAFT GRADES! - BonnieBengal - 04-28-2018 I don't know. It just happened. I'm glad we got a first round Center who wants to be here, however. I'm willing to grade 2015. That gets an F. |
