is very dangerous and that is just what we need on the Bengals as Chase is the one threat we have that does this except Chase doesn't have
the size Thomas Jr has. Tee is not a speedster, he relies on his size for the most part and is slow in and out of his breaks which is why he is
not a #1 WR like some on here claim.

Thomas could be a #1 with his quick feet, speed along with his size.


Well, when I watch the film, Murphy handled double teams just fine. Dude is insanely strong. You are correct on the snaps, but I think that 
is because Murphy expels such energy when he is out there. Tons of fight and leaves it all on the field, I think he would fit right in with our 
good players on the DL in Hendrickson, BJ Hill, Hubbard and Rankins.

I don't want to sound like I'm crapping on the guy, he's a good player and teams can find a role for him, but I don't view him as a first-round guy and for my money I think Mitchell is the guy people should be talking about in the first round.

for finding holes in Zone coverage. While I want us to pick the trenches the most early, I sure wouldn't mind Mitchell.
