What do you guys think we do with all these 6th round picks? Do we keep them. Do we package some for another 4th?
If we keep even 4 of them, I say screw it it draft a kicker. Matt gay from utah is a hell of a choice.

I would like them to use them to get another 4th so that they can nab a second LBer and also a defensive lineman.

If Tom Brady v.2.0 and/or Antonio Brown v2.0 are in this draft. Guess which team has the highest odds of drafting them!!!!! Bingo!!!

Make all 6th round choices LB and let them all fight it out. They are making almost all ratings of the college players as they are now, some have peeked already and are already on the down turn, many have plateaued and have earned their draft ratings and quite a few will still improve as they get older. Saying 6th rounders are useless is usually true for teams that are stacked, this team is not stacked.
You might see a trade up but there may not be any trade partners. In all honesty, this is where I would probably grab at least three offensive linemen if they don't grab another one in the fourth or fifth round. I like Hopkins but I also don't want him to be comfortable as the back-up. I want all of the back-ups to be pushed and having potential cheap replacements in camp lights a fire under many a player.

Better question...how many of these scrubs will be in the opening day 53? I’ll say 2 at best. Low-round comp picks and trading down, Bengals have hacked the NFL draft.

They will probably trade them all for just 1 7 rounder pick.

I made a thread in the draft forum on the topic of their trade value recently. The total of the 5 (before adding another yesterday) was 49 points. To put it in perspective Denver still owes us 4 more 6th round picks from yesterday as we got the bad end of the deal.

Keep in mind that due to our overall lack of depth our PS has been garbage. We could use these picks plus the returning injured guys from last years draft to fill it. Especially with new systems that need different style players.
But it would be better to use some of that to trade up

Welp, they traded off two of the picks and a 4th to get their backup QB and then traded another one and a 5th to move up to get Michael Jordan.
Then they picked up a much higher rated RB, a pretty solid MLB and then another RB that fell due to injuries and will most likely be on the PS for a year preparing for 2020.
Not a bad use of the 6th rounders.
