Receiver in first round?

Ross was accurately mocked because we knew the Bengals wanted a WR to replace LaFell and it was reported the Bengals loved Ross after they met with him.

Other site projections for Ross:
PFF - 19th
SI - 18th
Mayock - 14th
CBS Sports - 16th

In terms of Price:
Mayock - 45th
SI - 45th
CBS Sports - 47th
PFF - 69th

EDIT - Let me clarify I'm talking about prospect rankings, not mocking where they go. A mock factors in need whereas prospect rankings are purely based on talent.

You're moving the goaline a bit here on me. I responded to your post where you said they were taken higher than projected.

Projected pick & overall player rankings are two different things. A lot of factors go into where a guy is picked, by whom, and why. Talent or prospect rankings are a totally different story.

Both of the players we are discussing were picked roughly where they were thought to go. Price fell in projections late due to his injury, which turned out to not be a factor... at least for the Bengals.

Regardless, the point I was making is that, based on how the draft fell at the time, neither of those guys were doofus level reach picks. We can point to a lot stranger stuff over the last 20 years that the Bengals have done regarding the draft.

Hell, I once threw a remote through a Panasonic rear projection LCD when the Bengals passed on Steven Jackson.... TWICE. I swore to never get THAT angry about the Bengals again. But then, that Dre K pick came across the screen and, well, let's just say it took a lot of control to not erupt.
