Prince Wenego is there though with the other Guards in Kindley and Simpson.
Anae and Alton Robinson are there for DE
Moss at TE
Dye at LB also
They could even go WR again with Antonio Gandy Golden, Coulter from RI, Gabriel Davis, or Tyler Johnson from Minnesota. All steals in the 4th Rd.
Again, they're sitting pretty with guys we have talked about them getting or needing.
I'm excited for tomorrow, I kind of hope they trade down for an extra pick. Too many good talents still....
I mean, with that many good Guards and OL there we should still be able to get one of them in the 5th.
Might be a great time to grab a talented BPA like a TE, DE or LB no doubt Jersey.
Great Draft so far and we have the pick of the litter.

Maybe drafting Dobbins they plan to not have Lamar lead the team in rushing going forward. Hopefully right around the time Lamar is wearing down, Burrow is just coming into his prime...
I honestly thought the Dobbins pick was their best pick for keeping Lamar around. They did well there for sure.
Think Dobbins is special and I am no OSU fan.
I feel the same, maybe a few years and Burrow will come into his prime and we will take over. Steelers in the basement.

Yep, the more I think about it I’d say Bryant or Dye at 107. Won’t complain to one bit if they decided to go o line but I think the best value is Bryant. Think these will be the last of the LB’s that will be any kind of an upgrade for us too if we wanted to double up. Could find another depth OL in the 5th.

I remember Muti getting hype as the best guard but he has massive injury concerns. Wouldn't hate the risk in the 4th though. The only question is can he play on the right side? or maybe MJ slides to RG where he played freshman year in college.

I have some good feelings about having an Auburn dude playing RT for us...Big Willie!!!! But is Prince worthy of the pick? Possibly start at RT? Then grab Simpson, Biadasz, or Kindley in the 5th???

I’d be happy for one of these guys in order:
1) John Simpson-LG
2) Curtis weaver-de
3) Thaddeus Moss-TE
4) ADG-OLB

Great Draft so far and we have the pick of the litter.
I just saw that there's a lot of players still ranked in Jeremiah's Top 150 in the 60's range that we could get starting with Burrow's buddy Saadiq Charles!
Rank 63---Saadiq Charles OT
Rank 71---Harrison Bryant TE
Rank 75---Bradlee Anae, Edge (killed the South team in the Senior Bowl).
Rank 77---Curtis Weaver Edge
Rank 78---John Hightower WR
Rank 79---Antonio Gandy Golden WR MY PERSONAL FAVORITE
Rank 82---Ben Bartch OT (Showed well at the Senior Bowl)
Rank 89---James Lynch DE (He's fierce, big Lumber jack looking dude) I thought Carolina would nab him by now
Rank 95---Akeem Davis- Gaither, LB (Another Senior Bowl player and maybe their pick here)
They could trade down 9 spots and still land one of these players, and I'm just fine with that. I didn't even add MOSS into this equation or any of the other WR's around these picks. So much talent in this draft!!!

Everybody is getting better in this draft (well, maybe not Miami). No worries, at the end of the day, we get a QB and a WR who played for a national title against one another. And a lineback with above average modern day skills fpr the position and an old school motor and toughness to him. I like this draft so far. ALOT!!
As for my own mocks...well, I got one guy right so far. 
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

I've been sitting here quietly thinking AGG! Probably not in the cards, but who knows.... While he's my dude, I won't be to upset if the team goes a different way. I think they have knocked it out of the park!

I'm thinking they go Bryant to help open up the middle of the field more.

Really think we need to go offensive line here. More competition never hurts. I'm liking
Prince Tega Wanogho or Solomon Kindley.
I like Ben Bartch as well. Small school prospect that could have a ton of upside.
Ideally wouldn't mind seeing a OT in the 4th then bring in someone like Jason Peters for a year and let the rookie develop. And then potentially grab a LB or a OG to compete with our guys. There's also seemingly a lot of value for spots that I don't consider as heavily a need so that could also happen.

I'm with ya. I was waning Jones at 33. Damn he slid pretty far. What do I know? I still think we need OL to protect the Burrow.

Kinda does feel that way. However, one thing we have to remind ourselves is that the transition is not always kind to draft picks. Hopefully ours are solid. But as I think about this, I'm drunk and that makes no sense. I'm going to bed after this post.

Still think it only takes one hit to really hurt them and you know what I mean. He cannot run around like that for long.
No QB can.
Baltimore has been a solid team. They beat the Steelers when we couldnt. Yet, we seemed to have been able to own them (not last year). that was the Marvin error. Don't fear the enemy. They've always been stout on D. Offensively, they have Lamar Jackson. He gets that unfortunate hit that we all hate to see? Their the Browns of 2018. I think we are solid. ZT been here for 1 yr and that dude is making a change. Love it.

One draft can't fix the entire team so I'm okay with Burrow, Higgins, and Wilson as the draft haul at the expense of OL. I see a few posts of, "They didn't fix the OL yet", but it just isn't that simple.
I'd like TE Moss or Bryant with the next pick. I think they'll pick someone they liked from the Senior Bowl.

If Moss would be there at the start of 5 I'd say go O-line, just can't picture Moss still being there. He certainly makes an impact on offense and has chemistry with the QB which will be valuable.

I really like him, but I just worry about the medicals. They could easily make him slide

Here's the guys I would like the Bengals to grab in the next round or two:
Bradlee Anae - DE (I think he should be our next pick)
Prince Tega Wanogho - OT (I think he will get better as he learns the game more. Played well against SEC competition)
Leki Fotu- DT (I love me some run-stuffing DT's)
Shane Lemieux - OG (Nasty Guard that was the leader of a good line)
Solomon Kindley - OG (Another nasty guard who is a decent pass blocker)
Dane Jackson - CB (Kid has great confidence and coverage abilities)
Troy Dye - OLB (Adds needed speed to the defense. Like a Corey Littleton)
Akeem Davis Gaither - OLB (Mad dog on the field who can hit and cover)
I think the 4th round will start the run on OG's. I would take a flyer on Netane Muti in the 6th if he's still available. His injuries scare me too much to take before that. Not a big fan of Saadiq Charles.
My opinion means absolutely nothing and this draft has been nuts in terms of who is going where.

I like John Simpson for our next pick, but I agree we could comfortably trade down for him or somebody of his calibre.
Actually I really liked Tyre Phillips but the Ratbirds picked him with the last pick of day 2.

I'm a Davis-Gaither fan, but I think Anae would be a great pick. Also a team captain. He's really plays the edge well. Hits like a ton of bricks, too.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.
