Also if you were the expansion team and you could pick only 1 player from each team who would your Bengals pick be?
Most are no brainers but I want to see if there are any surprises....
Protect:
Offense - Dalton Green Boyd Mixon Price
Defense - Atkins Dunlap Bates Jackson Hubbard
Hard to decide on the last defender but Lawson’s ACL lets me feel comfortable leaving him unprotected.
Expansion selection: this would obviously depend on who other teams make available but strangely enough most of the choices I like are actually on defense but I would consider Dre K, Vigil, Evans, Dennard, Willis, Gio, Ross.
If I had a innovative offensive coach I think I might take a chance on Ross.
Boling and Gio are good players but more expensive and at positions that are not at a premium in the NFL. However, if I needed a guard or RB I would take one of them for sure.
I'd keep Boling over Boyd and Burfict over Hubbard.
