Addressing Needs in Draft

The Bengals could definitely address some needs, but I don't think they'll be able to address all of their needs. I would like them to stay at 9 and draft a day 1 starter. Foster, Fournette, or even a blazing WR or pass rushing DE would be nice. A new center would be great as well, but obviously not in round 1.

I agree that some concerns can be eased with the draft. On the defensive side, we don't tend to give rookies much of an opportunity to play in their first couple of years, so that's a concern.

It's going to be interesting. If they decide to trade back and stock up on some more picks, that wouldn't hurt either. Of course with the additional picks if they wanted to trade up and get their guy, that's a possibility as well. I just hope Alexander the Great doesn't get to pick what OLine we're looking at.

Mark my words Hasson Reddick would have been a top 10 pick if he didn't get injured in highschool and force him to walk on at a small school.  getting a 2nd and 3rd rounder to move from Foster to Reddick is really a no brainier.    This is also an extremely deep WR class with some real burners so you don't need to spend a #1 pick on a WR.
