He thinks more of the Bengals draft than I do. While I believe it was a pretty good draft, I'd hardly label it an A this early.
Former 2nd picks Devon Still and Margus Hunt are two guys I expect to find their way off the roster this year. Both were surprise picks as far I was concerned.
But, overall, the Bengals are drafting very well considering everything.
I see Shaw more than likely taking either Leon Hall's or Adam Jones' roster spots in the 2016 season rather than Kirkpatrick's spot. Marvin Lewis said last year at camp that Dennard was the best rookie corner he's ever seen, yet come the regular season Dennard can barely get any playing time. Shaw will be a 5th CB / special teams guy.
