I think my sleeper backer pick is Hodge from BFF. Or chase hansen but Chase is like 25 years of age now. I really like Hodge a lot. then maybe a kicker from LSU.

Go back into the season threads and you will see the same people griping about how our O line sucks and our D line cant get any pressure on the QB. Flash forward to today, now we draft heavily concentrating on the trenches and those same people are still complaining. Comical really how they simply will never be happy.

T.J. Edwards Linebacker from Wisconsin would be a nice addition to the LB unit...
Tre Lamar would be a nice thumper as well for short yardage situations.

Oh c'mon! We NEED reasons to complain and whine about any and everything the Bengals do or ever will do or won't do so I'll add that none of these guys are absolute locks to become HOFers day one! It's not fair! It's not fair that we as board members aren't being paid millions of dollar for our contributions to the necessary whining and complaining! It's not fair that Mike Brown outlived a cat I had when I was ten! It's not fair that certain brands of toilet paper don't stick to...(you know what)!
C'mon Bengals fans! Certainly you can come up with more mundane things to complain about completely unrelated to the team!

But they did not draft their guys or the site they used did not like our pick?????
I like trenches first approach always. No skill players other than a QB tells me Zac likes his receiving and RB group
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.

See my most recent post.. Someone will find more mundane things to whine about. WE NEED A MUNDANE WHINING HOF! It's just not fair..

Exactly. We have had chronic problems going back years of being unable to control the line of scrimmage on offense. Maybe to ZT, an offensive coach, fixing that is priority #1.

It certainly would.

Not a splashy draft at all, but somehow this feels like a very good one.
Maybe no all pro potential ( maybe Williams), but solid starters at many positions instead of near-busts like in recent years. Think this is the type of quiet draft that ends up winning playoff games.
