Damn there went Bartch. Was hoping he might fall to the fifth.

ADG is a pick I've been pumping all offseason but if his injury risk was as bad as originally reported then I think we could've waited. But then I see that Lou said everything checked out. So maybe not.

I know no OL pick is gonna make an impact this year anyway, but relying on XSF, Billy Price to finally turn a corner and Fred Johnson to be starter caliber is not a good idea.

I think the one guy still out there, that would have the best chance of playing/contributing right away is Biadasz.

Last night the Saints and Viking trade netter Baun for Saints. The Saints sent there remaining 4 picks to Vikings. VIKINGS have 13 picks today. 3 picks each in the 4th, 5th, and 6th. 4 picks in the 7th... unreal!

That’s a surprising pick for the Browns. They already have Njoku.

Wasn’t gonna happen. For that matter, all the higher rated OG/OT’s that were available at the Top of 4 will be gone at 5. Maybe Muti with his injuries will still be there.

Holy shit that Bartch transformation... :o

I agree. I hope he last to the 5th. I would trade Billy Price to Dallas for a pick...

[George Cantstandya]

Jags have 2 more picks this round. Come on, trade one for Dalton. Probably won't happen but I can wish. :)

I would like him but he did have a hip injury last year

You are correct Holic. The guy would be a steal at this point in the draft. Gotta love those Wisconsinnson linemen.

And Austin Hooper who they signed in free agency.

Unless there’s a run on corners the bengals may have amik Robertson as bpa in the 5th. Biasasz could be bpa but amik Robertson is a great corner

I'm not sure why it's hard for people to understand this. At this stage in the draft, they are going to struggle making the transition to the NFL. Even if you're a 1st rounder it isn't going to be easy. OL have a lot to learn and build their strength up.

Plus potentially no offseason and an abbreviated training camp.

There's rumors that Njoku is on his way out.

There are a couple guys at guard I believe could come in an compete for thr Right Guard spot with Xavier Su'a-Filo. Biadasz and Onwenu. But I want the Bengals to go out and get a veteran like Peters or Beachum.

[YorkshireBengal]

Is there an offensive lineman left who will actually improve our o-line?

If not go BPA from here on in?

Lets not forget that the Bengals will have first dibs on every player that hits the waiver wire.  There is always at least 1 good player that gets cut by a deep team hoping to stash them on the PS

Kentucky fan in me wants to see them draft Logan Stenberg
