Round 2
1. Will Hernandez- even if this means giving up a 4th rounder to move up go get him. We have so many picks we need to use them to go get our guys.
2. James Daniels - I know this sounds crazy but hear me out. This obviously moves Price over to guard and gives him more time to get healthy. Also gives us a great backup at a position that is hard to find backups especially on only a 45 man roster
3. Josh Jackson - would also be OK with trading up for him.
4. Orlando Brown - Get thus guy and we might have the best running line in the AFCN next year. Huge difference from a year ago.
Round 3
1. Sam Hubbard - Bengals usually love going same schools guys. Guess they do it to make the players feel comfortable coming in. Doubt he's there but would be a huge steal.
2. Mason Rudolph - we will see a QB drafted at sine point late day 2 or early day 3. If he slides wouldn't surprise me to see his name called.
3. Shaquem Griffin - great story but not high on him because of his medical history. Guys an absolute great player on the field. Jumps in as a special teams stud and probably the best coverage LB on the roster.
We could use a Safety and Ronnie Harrison-Alabama and Justin Reid still on board that were top 5 Safeties per Mel Kiper.
Of course there is still good O Line help, which we could use Blocking.
There is D Line help
There are some interesting RB, WR, TE players.
I'm pretty sure we get a Round One Player falling to us in Two. On this pick we have to maybe over look position needs if an amazing talent falls to us. Plus, we could use help just about everywhere.
As for Pick 3, I think we can get a Round 2 Talent here. Maybe somebody Bengals have in the Top 5 at their position. Round 3 could be a player who was considered Round 1 or high 2, but that would really take not picking by position but best player left. I'm positive we can get a top 5 at his position in 3 and maybe in 4. I hoping we get great talent deep into draft.
So I think we come away with 2 Players the Bengals have graded very high at their positions. You add that to Price graded high and that would be 3 very solid picks. No gambling or reaching down for players that will be there later on Saturday. Friday we take players that we are surprised didn't go on Thursday. Keep taking Top Picks today.
So who ever falls to us, and we won't know that until the we are on the clock. Bengals just need a list of Best Available Athletes and just cross off names as Round Two and Three roll along. When we pick, whoever is not scratched off at top of list is our next Bengal. Taking Price in One sets us up to do that. Whoever is best on list regardless of position except FB and Kicker, who you never take early rounds.
