John Ross is a Bengal

[CincyWestside]

Honestly, I like the pick. At the beginning of the draft process, I was dead set on the Bengals upgrading a position of need like DL or OL. However, the class is deep in DL and sparse in OL. Therefore, we can address both in later rounds or see what our current, young players bring to the table. Don't forget, we get Billings and Jackson III back. So our defense will already be injected with some rookie playmaker talent. I will also give Og another year before writing him off. Another year removed from the ACL tear should do some good for him.

I was hoping we would trade back into the end of the 1st round to get Foster, that would have been a homerun for me. That being said, I do want the Bengals to break the mold and start trading back into rounds. We have 10 picks left and pretty solid roster. I would not expect all 10 picks to make the team.

I see Cook or Mixon at pick 41 and then I would like for us to trade to either get two picks in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. I would like one the 2 top C in Elfein or Pocic and then get DL. I believe that would set the stage for a good draft.
