I hated when they picked him and laughed when people acted like he was sneaky good pick. He's slow and small. Should have kept Hill.

wasnt Walton hurt at Miami?
that kinda of pick shows me how Tobin and Lewis were kind of arrogant and clueless at the same time with the roster. "watch us we will.show every other team how smart we are by drafting a RB who spent most his senior year injured but will really impact our offense.." meanwhile Genard Avery is right there undrafted and a LB that can rush the passer and play the run too.

Does this put RB on the draft list? Not a major need, as Mixon is good, and Gio is good 3rd down/change of pace back. But, Walton wasn't very impressive in his limited action last year, and now this incident likely puts his future with the team in question. If the team cuts Walton loose, the Bengals will have a need for a 3rd RB.

The OL needs to be fixed, regardless of what happens with Walton. That should be addressed in both free agency and the draft. What I'm asking in this thread is; Does RB now come onto our draft plan radar? I'm not suggesting spending a 1st-3rd round pick, but maybe in the 4th-5th there are usually still plenty of workable RBs. I'm not thinking a 3 down pounder type, but a solid, compact built, good blocking with nice hands type of back.

There's quite a few guys they could get in round 5 that could be quality backups. Got some decent free agents too that are under 30.

Yep, we won't know until the season starts, we will get some hints along the way though especially when cuts happen if Taylor has a good eye for talent or not. It is simple, cut the guys who are not as good, keep the better players. Og was clearly the worst OT on the team and has been since he got here. You don't just start a player cause he is a first round pick. You have to eventually realize it was a mistake and make the right move.

Definitely don’t want to use another draft pick on one again this year. Too far down of list of needs.

Well, if Walton is cut, you most definitely need a 3rd back and the 3rd back will play ST's. But a late round guy would probably do, probably one of those many 6th rounders, for instance. Or possibly a guy cut from another team.

I'm thinking that it might be time to start looking for Gio's eventual replacement. He's still plenty good, but only in his role as 3rd down/change of pace back. We have seen in years past, that since his knee injury, he can carry a full time load for a game or two, but looks to get worn down after a few weeks of 3 down production. So, whomever is the 3rd back for the Bengals is actually the 1st backup at RB. Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations -Frank Booth 1/9/23

But your point is well taken. If the either the OLine or the LB position is sufficiently addressed n FA, then you would have the luxury of grabbing a back on Day 2, maybe. RB's do have a relatively short shelf life compared to other positions so it would be better to have one waiting in the wings before he is absolutely needed than not have a viable option there in time.

I do kinda get why they took Walton. IF 100% healthy his Junior year, he's maybe a 2nd Round pick. So they thought they were getting value to replace Bernard. But, Walton struggled behind the offensive line. You can't be tentative and he doesn't have the speed to outrun guys. His instincts weren't there.
