Obviously love the pick

[Joelist]

So Round 1 is a rotational DE and Round 2 a reserve CB. Are we allergic to drafting players to start?

Torrence is a guy I liked, but he is RG, right? Cappa's spot. 

Rd 3 if think WR, TE, RB are tops. Man, but if D. Jones is there.

Yeah, his consensus was the 51st best prospect. He had no shot of going in the first. Fine value at 60 though.

That was my read on it as well.

and you cant teach 4.2 speed........wait til Lou coaches him up

[ezekiel23]

Trade Jonah Williams and go after Darnell Washington.

No, we're just a good team that doesn't have to draft for what some fans consider need

Welcome to having a stacked roster. May it ever continue.

I like Zack Kuntz in round 3 or 4, depending on if TE really start going.  Check that kid out

[Sled21]

We have tremendous DB coaches and Lou, who can fix his flaws. You can't coach speed. This was a good pick.

[*pally*]

Dax is happy with the pick

First time in franchise history the #Bengals have gone defense-defense with their first two picks in back-to-back drafts.

I trust Lou Anarumo. He’s the secondary whisperer.
