1. After the run on all the WR's, Bengals stayed true and didn't reach for a later round player
2. With A. Jones up there in age, Dre K underwhelming, and Dennard's failure to hit the field, the pick puts Dre K and Dennard on notice!!
3. This pick sent the Stoolers into panic mode, and they reached for need (something the Bengals did not do in the first).
4. I've heard many say how good the secondary is, but let's be clear our corners' success is due directly to how good the D-line has been. Take away Geno and Dunlap the corners are average or worst routinely getting burnt, playing way off the line of scrimmage, and being exposed when the line is not getting pressure.
5. For all the above reasons, it's a great pick at one of the most important positions in today's pass heavy NFL.
4.. our defense has been good a while with top level corners... our DL only recently started to shine. they contribute both ways good coverage = longer time to sack.. better pass rush = less time in coverage or ability to make INTS on bad throws.
Its give and take
my favorite pick was the last one...
