Honestly, if GB takes Mixon then I don't want the Bengals drafting a RB in the second.

I think it was a confluence of diluted urine sample, bad shoulders, combine interview dropped Foster like a rock.

Great production for being switched to a new position. And is still learning it.

Will be training and learning from a 3 time defensive MVP

He's got decent athleticism. He isn't a quick twitch athlete.

He's a project that will need some refinement. If anyone can do it, its the Steelers.

Doesn't mean it isn't a reach :).

Some good players left for the Bengals to grab tomorrow!

That's ancient history....4 in the 70s. The Pats will pass them....and are a better team.  Who gives a shit anyway....**** the Stoolers! LOL.

GB has 13 titles...BTW.

[samhain]

So many players left that they could use. Cook, Cunningham, Robinson, Lamp, Mixon, McDowell, Kamara, and some I'm probably forgetting. Gonna be exciting.

[masterpanthera_t]

If McDowell and Mixon are gone, would love for the Bengals to get Timmy Williams

[Whatever]

FWIW, his 5.8 grade on NFL.com has him tied for the worst graded player drafted in round 1 with Mahomes.

??? Dude was congratulated for being so involved in every aspect of his players lives, but kept a known rapist on his team.

I think we can talk about that wherever we damn well please. If you'd like to start a safe space forum somewhere....

I'd be fine with Dalvin Cook.

If those two are gone i would love Cunningham.  But Williams is good too.

Yeah Cunningham or Cook wouldn't be bad at all

[phil413]

Why is everyone convinced GB will take Mixon next...did Goddell ban teams from taking him in the first for hitting that girl? Also why is he such a big loss for Cincy? Plenty of players left.

[Shake n Blake]

TJ Watt to the Steelers genuinely sucks.

The Browns are doing what I've always thought they should do. Build the team THEN take the QB. Not vice versa per usual.

Why of course. I still dont believe nobody tried to trade up with us at 9. We have 10 more picks and we stay pat. Any other team would be moving all over the place. ****** joke of a franchise. Joke of a 9th overall pick. I dont mind the player its the spot he was picked and injury history for a smaller WR. I hate the pick. He's not going to be so fast when he's sitting on the bench in street cloths next to Eifert.

[*psychdoctor*]

I still see team needs for the Bengals:
-RB
-DE
-Guard
-Backer

I would replace Guard with Tackle. Lamp would be a steel.

Ppl must be getting over the initial knee jerk reaction to the Ross pick because he has not been mentioned for pages in this thread.

[Joelist]

It wasn't knee jerk - it was a totally understandable reaction to us taking yet another flyer on a player with serious injury. And the last one (Og) was a catastrophe.
