We have no control over that, and I don't think it's ever interfered in our draft process. Who actually knows if it's a "leak" anyway? Maybe the guy just knows the FO better than most?

I believe he got the Eifert pick right if I'm not mistaken? We were picking in the early 20's that year too which is harder to predict the later we draft (duh). I'm just interested in his pick as I usually am. Can't wait.

he hasn't really settled on one yet. Just suggestions depending on which way the Bengals want to go


In Part One, Wilcots and Lapham discussed how free agency might have changed the Bengals' direction where they're scheduled to make their first selection with the 31st pick in the first round of the draft.


Part Two finds the discussion turning towards the positions and players the Bengals could look to fill or pick on the first night of the draft.
If the Bengals look to cornerback, standouts Sauce Gardner, Derek Stingley Jr., and Trent McDuffie are expected to be off the board by the 31st pick. However, Kaiir Elam, Andrew Booth, and Kyler Gordon might be available.


If not cornerback, maybe the Bengals look at safety with players like Dax Hill, Lewis Cine, and Jalen Pitre possible targets, or perhaps a move towards the offensive line with players like Tyler Smith (Tulsa), Zion Johnson (Boston College), Kenyon Green (Texas A&M), Bernhard Raimann (Central Michigan) and Iowa center Tyler Linderbaum who many compare to NFL standout Jason Kelce.
