Bengals place value on a 1st round pock in relation to the contract, so I think this removes a LB, RB and a TE for those reasons.
I see it being a DE so I could see Taco Charlton or Barnett, unless we trade down. If we trade down (thus lowering 1st round contract), I see OJ Howard or a LB coming into play.
This is a great point. The total money paid for #9 pick is a tad over 17 million. That's a pretty decent cap hit. Best potential value would probably be from a DE, WR or CB.
