And they are all risks: The two safest OL picks from what I've heard are McGinchley and Wynn. And even they have holes. McGinchley struggles with speed/ quickness guys - that are now found on both the weak and strong side.
Wynn reportedly is more of a zone blocking guy who doesn't the push that someone like Hernandez is going to get. And the Bengals are going in the power scheme direction.
Hernandez reportedly has short arms and is not as good moving laterally as Wynn, but is a beast in the power game.
Honestly the safest prospect I've read reviews on is Ragnow. And he is projected anywhere from the mid first round to the mid third round.
So hard to call, but If I'm trying to be safe I'm taking Ragnow in the first (unless McGinchley is there) and someone like Crosby or Brown if they are available at 46.
Which I think will be moot. I think the Bengals take the best defensive player (unless McGinchley is there). And if Payne is there I think they will take him over McGinchley. But my expectation is that neither will be there.
Nice post, Bambino left out the safest prospect lol
What is nice about Wynn is he is very smart and could play in any scheme from what i have seen.
Hernandez is more physical but it is not like Wynn cannot play physical.
Ragnow and Wynn i think are the safest prospects for us.
McGlinchey i would be fine with but he did play next to Quinton Nelson. Could of helped him a lot.
I doubt we take Payne over McGlinchey though after signing Baker and having Billings and Glasgow waiting in the wings.
