Now if there is a 4-3 Linebacker who should have went Round 1, GREAT....or an Offensive Tackle who should have went in Round 1, to bookend with Jonah to try to fix worst O Line in NFL, GREAT.
However lets say no Round 1 players at 4-3 LB, or OT fall to us at #33. Then that means a WR, or a RB or a DB or a D Lineman who should have went in Round 1 is sitting there at 1st pick in Round 2. This gives Bengals an Extra Round 1 besides Burrow at QB. Plus, the 2 win Bengals can use help at many positions. They should not take a Round 2 player, NO....They should take a Round 1 player who fell due to a Run on QB's or WR's or such, and moved a Round 1 Player down one space into Bengals laps at Top of 2. Paul Brown would say his name is B.A.A.....Best Available Athlete....Did I mention a Round 1 Tight End like a Gronk or Kelse if there is one and falls to us. ...I'm hoping OT or LB, but the most amazing athlete still on board at start of 2 is our guy, no matter his position. Other than QB if we take Burrow.
This IS like having 2 First Round Picks.
I don't attempt names because there is always a SURPRISE who is still there at 1st Pick in Round 2. This Year, Bengals can grab that Surprise Player.....his name is B.A.A.
Lets not forget the 1st pick in 3 is like a 2.....The 1st pick in 4 is like a 3.....The 1st pick in 5 is like 4. .....Bengals should get 5 very good athletes to help this 2 win team turn things around
The Bengals shouldn't be considering a RB until the middle of the third round at the earliest. They should be looking at Guards instead of RBs.
There's no first round TE in this draft either. There might not even be one until the 3rd round.
I'd rather BPA at 33 than BAA - that's best player rather than best athlete. BAA gives you Margus Hunt, Jerome Simpson and other projects. I want someone who combines athleticism with football savvy. But agree totally that we need to see what the draft board gives us - someone should fall and if they don't that's when we consider trading back and taking an extra 3rd.
