***Official 2021 NFL Draft Thread***

Dude kicked ass at the senior bowl. There's probably a reason stone is falling.

I like the D'Ante Smith selection. He has good qualities to develop to go with things that cannot be developed. He has the length that every consistently talks about and good feet. Needs to get stronger but Pollack and a NFL weight program will develop that.

Honestly, it's impressive that he was starting in the ACC playing that light.

I mean, I guess? I'm the one willingly rooting for the team. If it's making me that miserable or upset, I'd just walk away. I prefer to try and look at the positives and be hopeful about the decisions they've made, even though I know they all won't work out.

Obviously there are some frustrating things, but at the end of the day I made this choice to root for the Bengals and I try to be optimistic about it. If that makes me a bad fan or whatever, so be it.

As frustrated as I have been over two days, I had hopes with adding those 4th round picks we would finally make at least a stronger commitment to our Oline that it would at least move the needle up for me but the best we can do in our most important position to fill is a undersized tackle instead of addressing the thin guard/center area pretty much sealed a bad feeling about this draft. I hope for Bengal fans and Burrows sake this draft proves me wrong but right now grade of a C-.

I appreciate that he was their guy regardless, but he had a 3rd-4th round grade on him and we took him at 46. I'm not saying he won't be good or play up to that pick. I just would've felt better taking him a round later. Doesn't mean the draft has been bad though.

Are you positive we could have gotten him in the 3rd or later?

Knowing how the Bengals operate, it'll most likely be the Northwestern QB. They met with him and he's a local guy.

I can relax now. Do whatever now its all good

I agree with a dude The Bengals will draft a quarterback but they need two wide receivers and a kicker as well

You’re a real piece of work, btw. Anytime the “thumbs down” is given to a post in this thread, it’s always from you. What kind of juvenile pageantry is that? You think that’s going to get you places in the arena of ideas?

And someone told me you cut your own balls off at birth. Why?

Better than the NFL Network who put that Smith was the 2020 SEC Player of the Year right after saying he opted out of the 2020 season after 1 game.

My crystal ball works as good as anyone else's. No, I cannot guarantee it. Everywhere I saw had him graded between the 3rd-4th. ESPN was even surprised we took him where we did. Since we took him at 46, its all speculation. More than likely, I believe he would've been available at 69.
