I would think there would have to be a weird set of events for Howard to be the pick for the Bengals.
Yes! And I find it comical to listen to them make excuses as to why X or Y player has fallen so far. They should do away with that entire "green room" thing, as well. It does not bode well for the psyche of a young man, who has worked his ass off his entire life, to have a camera looking in on him as every passing draft pick doesn't announce his name. That is just some twisted "drama" creation. They just want to look for any expression, even a fleck of emotion on the poor dudes face, so that they can make passing conversation while teams are on the clock.
They should just go back to the days when all of the top talent was just in the audience, and came on down when called, ala The Price is Right. Get rid of all those stupid gatherings of fan bases at the draft, invite prospects and their families free of charge.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
