Sorry - I have to say, this post is ***** awful.

Just rancid. Do better.

So how does he help us win now again?

Moving on to RD 3: In the "Who do you want" thread I said Devon Achane. And still would love him, but some unexpected players available.

depth when one of the corners get injured. When you're a great team picking late, most likely your picks are for depth/future. Thats what good teams do

WE DON'T NEED ROOKIES TO HELP US WIN NOW.

The Bengals are looking to get cheaper on defense which is where they spent their money during the rebuild. They have put money into the OLine and soon to be Burrow Chase and Maybe Higgins. Moves at high dollar premium positions on defensive like corner and DE will save money on offense.

Turner and Murphy were both BPA. Murphy was around the 20th best player in the draft at an important position. Turner was mocked in the first round by Kiper and several others. Murphy give me a break 6.5 270 4.51 is elite speed. Now Turner one of the fastest times at the combine in a long time. You can’t coach speed and Lou can coach up the other.

Lou is a DB guru........he is loaded back there w/ speed

I'm glad they are keeping the future in mind but it's a catch 22.... you really should be going for it.

Would like to see them at least trade up in the 3rd and grab someone they want.

The Tulane RB also looks good.

Have they drafted a single starter since the draft started? Just curious. I don't have to immediately adopt the opinion that every pick is going to be great (statistically most drafts only get, what, 2 decent players out of it if you're lucky?) and gargle a guys nuts in order to be a fan of the team. 

If they end up actually playing, I will cheer for them just like I do all guys who put on the Bengals uniform and perform well. Doesn't mean I can't disagree with the pick until then.

Also, what's up with the font? It's unrelated to the conversation and I am not saying it to pick a fight, though you feel like you might be a bit determined.... but why?

if that is what it takes to keep him around for the rest of his career, then I'm all in.

And Paul Dehner really addressed that. Gosh maybe they are thinking long term and smart??? LMAO don’t you think . You get it.

Kraft if he's there not likely but Spears, Bigsby, or off the wall Tyler Scott.

Would prefer Spears, Johnson, Abanikanda, and even Prince.

I agree with you, Mixon needs to go. We can’t get worse than Mixons 3.9 YPC. I also can’t watch another year of struggling to convert 4+1 with a slow 220 pound back.

[Vas Deferens]

Hope we find an Atkins level sleeper here soon.

He does. I also like the RB outta ILL. We just drafted the 2nd best DJ on the team, maybe we can draft the 2nd best Chase in RD 3

Do you add ANYTHING of value with your posts or do you just ***** about other posters?

There's a difference between CAN and CARE.

Like you.....I don't care.
