Penei goes 2 overall, who do you pick? - DYT_Bengal - 12-28-2020
I’m not familiar with other oline talent coming out this year but don’t see any familiar names where we are picking that sound like a sure pick. For the sake of discussion, no trading down.
With that in mind, my choices are Micah Parsons -> Jamar Chase -> Kyle Pitts (sleeper).
Gregory Rousseau looks like a carbon copy of Barkevious Mingo (bad).
Patrick Surtain is fast but iffy at point of attack -> not a sure bet.
Kwity Paye will be decent but not too 5 material (I’m a UM fan).
I haven’t scouted other players, I’m sure there is other offensive lineman out there.

Slater out of northwestern and Darrisaw out of VT are two solid tackles. I’d love parsons or pitts

Depends how the board falls. Depends what we do in FA (and with WJ3).
Who I’d be most excited about is Chase or Pitts. But I’d be down for Slater if we go OL. Needless to say I’m hoping for offense.
Wouldn’t be mad with some of those defensive players either though.

Who's the best blocking TE in this draft?

My first thought was "bazinga".

Trade down

The heart says Pitts. The brain says that you think about Chase or a trade down.

We've seen what a great TE can do for an offense. This is where I am at the moment with the sexiest pick being Chase.

Every single draft I do, Sewell is still there at 6.
Like I don’t know what the eagles or falcons are working with but I can’t imagine Sewell getting passed those 2.
Rousseau, Chase, Parsons, fields, Wilson, Surtain are all names that are going 2-5. At this point, being so early in the draft, the bengals seem to be married to Sewell on TDN

At no fault of his own, I feel Slater is going to fall later into 1st round because of his lack of length. Some teams will feel he doesn't have enough arm length to handle OT duties in the NFL, so they may want to move him to guard. Yet he's not really started at guard, as his starts in college have been at RT and LT.
I personally would be fine waiting until Rd 2 to take an OT, as I think there's a glut of good talent and someone great will fall to the Bengals' 2nd round pick.
OTs I have in the Top 50:
- Sewell
- Darrisaw
- Slater
- Radunz
- Leatherwood
- Eichenberg
- Cosmi
- Mayfield
- Carman
I also like Teven Jenkins from Oklahoma St as a RT prospect if the Bengals were to wait until Rd 3.
Depending on what the Bengals do in FA though, they may prioritize IOL instead.

The TE position has changed so much in the modern NFL. Kelce is likely going to lead the league in yards for the season.

Maybe. Depends if the Falcons want to replace Matt Ryan in the near future, but I don’t know what they have on tackles. Neither do I the Eagles. I find it hard for them to pass up on Sewell at 5, but they do really need a corner.

Falcons have a really good Left Tackle in Jake Matthews and a solid option in Kaleb McGary at Right Tackle.
They took AJ Terrell last year but could definitely use another corner, but you're right they could go QB especially if someone like Justin Fields falls into their lap.

A lot of what happens at 2 and 3 will depend on who the new coaches/gms are. I think if they don’t go the QB grooming road, Parsons might be what they are looking for on D.
I don’t think 2, 3, 4 go Sewell then. Money is on the eagles to take Sewell then.

I agree I think the Picks at 5 or 6 goes to Parsons, chase, or pitts. It feels bad to take a TE in the top 10, but he is talented... I just don't know if our coaching staff will use him well enough to justify the pick. Parsons feels like a generational middle linebacker, but are those guys worth the value investment in the top 10 these days, and Chase is a great prospect and really feels like an aquan boldin style receiver that could help replace the void as the 2nd receiver.

I don’t know if they would do that with other issues they have and the talent available. But if that’s the case the Jags should do that and let Cam Robinson go.
