One..I am amazed at the amount of passion by all participating..You guys are great..But the amount of negativity regarding picks is somewhat confusing.
This team..aside from injuries to Burrow and a dozen and one half other players the past two years would once again have been in super Bowl consideration.
.We have a very good team and now ..organization.. Yet...I think so many of us have ..over the years been accustomed to such poor results, we relied heavily on us drafting "BIG NAME" players in the draft.. At the same time the very successful teams just drafted some players to fill certain needs and continued to move forward.
This team needed some oomph on the DL..they got a player that has really good potential..This team needed to add that same oomph @ linebacker..ditto..this team needed a solid player @ guard..we drafted such...All three will add to completion for positions which is a good thing
And ..again. aside from the top 12-15 players in the draft..the talent and skill level of all the remaining players is not remarkably different
And finally..to attach a grade to players that were drafted the past 2 days is ridiculous..Some of these lessor known players may prove to be superstars in the NFL and some of the big names will be busts..or medicore
Bengals did ok..And..let us not forget..when final cuts are made this summer there will be a plethora of really good players available..
Just my thoughts
