In this scenario Carter , Graham , Mykel Williams, and Walter Nolan are all gone. The Bengals decide to go for an edge over the NT in Kenneth Grant. My question is would the Bengals finally be willing to draft a smaller type edge guy at 17 ? In my lifetime they’ve typically gone for the bigger 4-3 ends Dunlap, Michael Johnson, Will Clarke , Margus Hunt , Myles Murphy ect. We had the Nolan Smith vs. Myles Murphy debate before. Looking at who’s available at 17th James Pearce Jr. is intriguing to me because he’s has the length at 6’5, plays in the SCC but weighs in at only 243. Then you have Mike Green who’s a small school guy at 6’3 250 played well at the senior bowl practices and had 17 sacks. Then you have Jalon Walker from Georgia at 6’2 245lbs whose pro comp is Nolan Smith ironically. Thoughts on these players at 17 and if you think the Bengals will be willing to draft them.
