I really like this Alec Pierce from UC.He’s a big receiver that is very athletic,and he’s fast.(4.41 forty)I know they have other needs,but this would sure add to Joe Burrow’s arsenal.I wouldn’t be disappointed if they selected him in the first round,if he’s still There.The Bengals just had him in for a visit.
So many mocks have Pierce around in the late 2nd round and that would shock me. I don't think the Bengals take him at 31, but maybe if they trade back and get an additional 3rd rounder they snag him early second. I think it all boils down to the CBs available at 31, or if a stud edge or 3T falls to 31, but those cases are pretty unlikely.
I think "trade back" is going to be the name on the Jersey they are prepping to hold up on day 1, because there are bound to be teams that want to jump the Lions (who may take a QB) and take one of the remaining QBs. I wonder if the Bengals would make that trade with the steelers?
I kind of want Linderbaum to be there and take him one pick ahead of the Lions, like they did with the Billy Price/Frank Ragnow switch years ago.
If they really want him, they might try to trade up two spots to make sure he doesn't fall to the Bengals.
Damn, so many interesting things can happen this year and it is going to be a LONG day 1!!!!
