Also said he met with the Bengals at the NFL combine(not sure if we knew this or not). As far as other buckeye players, Sam Hubbard I believe locked in his top 50 selection. Tyquan Lewis is gonna be a steal late. Denzel ward unless something insane happens will go top 10.

Coaches there were Marvin Lewis, teryl Austin, Jacob Burney, and Robert Livingston.

Him or Ragnow, as i keep saying, love both. Could be a big mistake to wait on either of these guys even if i think one falls
to 46 i don't want to gamble. Sure, i would rather have the BPA in the first and get Price or Ragnow in the 2nd but don't
want to take the chance and seeing them both picked right before us. That would be rough.

You sure would think after seeing all these Buckeyes do well in the NFL that our coaches and FO might look around and
see that it is not a bad thing to take one once in awhile. Price would be amazing for this team, just what we need.

Rashaan can play SAM with a terrible vengeance. He is Blade.

(03-22-2018, 09:30 PM)Nate (formerly eliminate08) Wrote: Yes, that would be much better as i like Ragnow just as much as Price.

We get Hernandez in the 1st Ragnow in the 2nd damn we will have one solid interior that is built on the run game and can protect.

The only better Guard in this Draft than Hernandez is Quinton Nelson. There is no better Center than Ragnow, him and Price are right there.

But if Pollack was sold on Boling/Westerman/Redmond i sure wouldn't mind Rashaan Evans and Ragnow either one two.

I mean, do you know how rare it is to have such horrible hand placement as an olineman, and still dominates like he did?? He puts his hands inside(easy fix) ur talking first ballot hall of famer. I dislike this lber crop as a whole. But not a fan of Evans in the first. I think after the top 2 there is a major drop off in talent.  But there is 6 interior olineman that have all pro written All over them and a guy who I think gets overlooked is Braden Smith.

(03-23-2018, 06:50 PM)Nate (formerly eliminate08) Wrote: You have horrible hand placement in the NFL and you are screwed. Easy to dominate lesser players in college without proper
technique, you get to the NFL and it is much different. That is why Nelson is the better prospect, plus Nelson is more versatile
and can even play OT with his long arms. Hernandez is specifically a RG and while i would love to get him he has a lot of work
to do to improve his hand placement as you say he has a major problem with.

Rashaan Evans can shed blocks, stop the run, rush the passer and cover TE's. Perfect SAM Linebacker for us.

The only LB in this Draft that jumps off tape to me better is Trumaine Edmunds.


Same here. It is a negative, not a positive. Means he has a lot of work to do. He does that in the NFL and he gets beat or is
called for holds all game long.

There is a big drop off in OT talent between 21 and 46 and between 46 and 77, and we need a RT as much as we need a Center. Hart sucked for the Giants. Fischer hasn't shown much for us. If McGlinchey is there, I think we have to take him. I don't like it, but I think that's the way it is.

If McGlinchey is gone, then we could go LB, though I'd be tempted to take DE/DT Tevan Bryan.

I think that we could get a starting C at 46.

If that's the case, then it tells me he's not coachable, because you know his coach was harping on him.
