I can agree with that idea.  Who determines if taking a player of need, over a player perceived to be more valuable, is indeed a "reach"?  Hell, it seems that half of the time, the talent judged to be at the top of their position class end up being busts or otherwise underachieving for whatever reason.  

When dealing with a team with as many holes as the Bengals have at various position groups, you can't go wrong with stocking up on a bunch of what I call "film giants".  Those are the players that maybe don't have those "elite measurables" that so many seem to covet, but they are fundamentally air-tight and have football I.Q.'s that are off the chart.  

Sure, every year there are a few obvious standouts that will obviously be instant NFL stars, and you do need a couple of them on your team.  However the emphasis of judgement should go on the fundamentals of the game, blocking and tackling.  If your team as a whole can block and tackle better than the guys across from you?  Chances are you will win most of your games.
