He likes Pick 9.
Now IF Tobin and Bengals get an offer from a team needing a QB but no QB worth a top 5 pick,....So they trade down to Bengals at 9 and if we don't have to give up good picks to move up, I would be all for moving up, taking Fournette, letting the other team pick at 9, as long as we don't have to trade off pick 41 or any picks. I could see moving back a couple spaces on a late comp pick to a pick 2 in the next round somewhere on Saturday picks.
I do know from all Bengals have said that they will grab Fournette if they can and say he is too good of a running back to pass up.
Now that's a terrifying thought. If that's what Tobin believes and if he has a strong say in who we draft it doesn't bode well for the future of this team...
Fournette is NOTHING like Peterson or Zeke. If we trade up for the 2nd spot the only logical selection is Myles Garrett. If the team actually does this in an effort to nab fournette I will be livid. That will be unforgivable
