I now everyone is thinking trenches right now, but at safety Bell is a FA and Stone is in the last year of his contract. We've all seen the physical limitations of these two and Battle. Anderson and Anthony are more athletic but they haven't seen the field much outside of special teams.
It's not clear that either of these guys will be available when we pick in round 2, but ..
Xavier Watts Notre Dame is more of a Bates type; a converted WR roaming center or right center field with the ability to quickly recognize coverages and come up quickly when needed to cover the run. Watts plays mostly single high safety.
Nick Emmanwori S. Carolina is more like Cam Chancellor (or David Fulcher for Bengals Old-timers), a 6-4 230 lb converted high school MLB who is an amazing athlete (though I wonder about his short shuttle change of direction) who is very good in coverage and an enforcer when he gets near the line. Emmanwori plays mostly quarters coverage.
Both were team captains.
Who do you think is the better fit for the Bengals?
