For my @PFF folks, Jonah Williams was ranked No. 4 overall on their board. They had him for only allowing 1 sack in 840 pass blocking snaps the last two years.

I don't recall a draft with only 1 OT taken in the first 18 picks. Maybe Taylor goes here.

Who knows? Maybe the Bengals trade up with all those 6's and nab Taylor.. I would in a heartbeat unless they know something the rest of us don't know..

Bradbury may signal the end for Elflein's days as a starter.

Agreed and tells me Williams was first choice and not close to rest of teams who drafted after us
I was hoping Simmons would drop to round 2 in our lap
2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

Williams was the better tackle. I don’t think it happens as I think now they look to defense.

Jeffrey Simmons with a torn ACL still goes top 20.

Man that's true, forgot they had Elflein, thought he was like Price looked at as a better Guard. I know Bradberry can play Guard so that's prob their plan.

Zac had Williams at #4 so no way they were taking Bush so they duped the Stoolers

Wasn’t sure how much the issue with beating the woman would impact him but he is a top talent.

Crazy burst for a guy with his size. Even with Montez Sweat on that line Simmons was the first guy out of his stance.

I just know Elflein's been miserably bad for 2 years. Zim isn't making the Bodine mistake.

Guessing Ravens go WR with their pick.

Did anyone here ever think for a sec that no Oline player would go before us? Kinda amazing really.

I figured someone would draft him by now, but he always screamed 2nd to 3rd round DE to me. He has no flex. Kind of like Jordan Willis, who also fell pretty far on draft day. It'll be interesting to see if he falls as far as Willis did.

Really? I thought they liked him but he's been injured. Hmmm

Thought there would be more trades. Kinda odd draft so far.

Zac Taylor knew to grab the best offensive lineman on the board. Mad respect!
