It’s one day away, and I honestly have no idea who I want in the first round. I honestly can’t recall a draft where I’m really not a fan of any of the prospects that are likely to be Bengals in the first. While it’s not a “name”, I would be most excited to hear a trade down.
If we stay at 17, I’d be good with hearing Emmanwori, Campbell, Harmon, Scourton, Barron or even Warren or Egbuka(even though we absolutely don’t need a WR in round 1). I’d also be estatic if we someone at the top falls.
I have a whole list of guys that I don’t like for a variety of reasons.
I don’t want Walter Nolan, James Pierce or Mike Green for character reasons. Don’t get me wrong, I think they can play and like their tape ( Pierce was initially one of my favorites but after watching some interviews and hearing about rumored character concerns I’d pass on 17) I just don’t trust any of these guys but if I were to place a bet, I believe one of these 3 will be Bengals.
I also don’t want Shemar Stewart or Mykel Williams. Both scare me for different reasons. I think Shemar has potential but that’s all he is and I don’t think the Bengals are the team that can develop him. Mykel just seems like a guy with ideal size but doesnt offer much outside of run stopping.
