Who was your favorite pick?
#39
My favorite pick would have to be the DE/DT Brown drafted in the 5th round simply because of value and need. The strength of this pick comes from his performance at the Senior Bowl where he had an outstanding week. He excelled at shooting the gap showing an explosive first step. He shows excellent strength. The Bengals defensive line sees a dramatic drop off whenever Gino isn't on the field. No one else has been able to replicate his explosiveness and I see Brown filling that role. I think most were expecting the Bengals to draft more of DaRon Payne, massive run stopper, but apparently they are hoping Billings and Glasgow still develop. You obviously can't fill this many holes in one draft.

So to me they were determined to draft Price/center in the first. 21 was his top range to be selected. Had we drafted Price in the 2nd that would have been my favorite pick. Given Brown's performance at the Senior Bowl and combine I'm surprised he didn't go in the 3rd or 4th making him an excellent value in the 5th round.

edit- I want to add this is what they tried to do with Marcus Hardison. If at first you don't succeed.
