My top 3 are Bijan Robinson, Micheal Mayer and Dalton Kincaid. If we take any of those 3 I would be hyped, but obviously there's a lot more players I would be happy with. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if all 3 were picked by then.

Looking forward to getting started.

Draft Day... I have to get my copy of that movie from the attic. It's become a tradition lol.

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

I think all the people they might want (Wright, Mayer, Forbes, both of the top-2 RBs) are gone and the Bengals trade down with a team wanting to trade back up into the 1st to get a QB who'll get that 5th year option.

Would love:
Wright
Forbes
Bijan (no chance)

Happy with:
Kancey
Gibbs

Acceptable:
Kincaid


Do not want:
Mayer

It wouldn’t surprise me if all those are gone by the time we pick and look to trade back.

Everytime I turn around I see more Jahmyr Gibbs to the Bengals hype... I caught hell for like 3 months for saying I like Gibbs with Burrow lol.

Kincaid will probably be there, I doubt the other two are.

I just remember watching Gibbs when Vols played Bama and thinking this kid is an NFL RB. He's so good out of the backfield he can be a legit three down back. No more Mixon for two and Perine (whoever replaces him) for one.

Please don't post picks before they're announced on TV!!!

Were you watching Good Morning Football this morning?  That's what one of the hosts had for his mock.  He had the Bengals trading out of the first with the Vikings and the Vikings taking a QB, Hendon Hooker.    :)

Keep in mind that everyone is watching TV differently.  Some are on antenna, some on cable (various systems). some streaming (various companies).  There are lag times that we discovered in the game day threads can be as long as 3 or 4 minutes between viewers.  

So don't forget that just because it becomes spoiled to you it may not be spoiled to another viewer whose system has less lag time than yours

For that matter, walk away from this message board once the 27th pick is made and don't look at it again until ours is announced. It's not really that hard.

If there isn't a first round graded player at a premium position (not RB or TE) left then trade out of the 1st.

If all these RBs and TE's are gone before we pick, then there HAS to be a quality prospect left for us to pick.  There's only so many players to go around before 28, especially since 4-5 of them will be QB's, cutting the overall numbers to 23.
