Sun sets on the Dalton/Green era.
Sun rises on the Burrow/Higgins era.

I wondered what the deal was...  

[grampahol]

Too bad his first name isn't Henry. I was a big Henry Higgins fan as a kid.. 

[Bengalstripes9]

I gotta say, I was wanting a lineman or edge player... But this was a great pick. There wasn't an offensive lineman or edge player picked for at least 10 picks after our pick.

Tee Higgins is a legit receiver. We are absolutely stacked at wide receiver this year. It's ridiculous. Best player available. Great pick.

On a side note... Man the Ravens and Steelers are getting better too, though. The Ravens get Queen and Dobbins. Very good start. The Steelers get Claypool. He'll be tough to guard, and hard to tackle. Also can't believe the Cowboys luck this draft. They get gifted Cee Dee Lamb at 17. Now they get gifted Diggs (Corner) in mid 2nd round. They are having a great draft.

Not many linebackers taken in the 2nd so far. Not many offensive lineman either. We should have a good chance at a solid linebacker at the top of the 3rd. Wondering if there is a Dalton trade in the works. Feels like there isn't much interest at this point.

He's not the only AJ Green fan - Zac's kid was wearing an AJ jersey as well.

[grampahol]

Green, Higgins, Boyd and Ross? Gonna make it easy for Mixon to find holes to run through with those 4 running lose . Now just imagine if Sample actually learns how to be a real TE on top of it..

Love that he's a Bengal fan! That was an excellent interview and this kid seems like a really high character guy. Really a great pick!

He sure did make it. Shows the Bengals and all the other teams had a problem with him. Non football issue?

[TecmoBengals]

Burrow to Wiggins for the TD is going to be something we get used to hearing.

What I like about this pick is not taking into account just combine numbers. Tee did what he did against some of the best
competition, Corners and Safeties in college football. He is a great pick cause of this, I know some like to hate on his Pro
Day and stuff like this but in the end we all know how just lighting it up as an athlete usually doesn't cut it.

On the field, this guy faced much better competition than Claypool (hate that Pitt got him), Pittman, Mims and Shenault.

I will say this Tee Higgins Is extremely likeable

Love that interview and knowing he is a Bengal fan cause of AJ.

Seems like a very classy dude cause of AJ. We can argue semantics and Pro days all day long but this guy played great at Clemson 
the last few years and was clearly the best WR on that team. I had other favorites but in the end I think they made the right pick I 
was just fine with Higgins before the pick even with the questions, there were tons of questions with Mims as well and why he fell.

Agreed compared to last year this draft is a dream.

[Whodey614]

He grew up a Bengals fan, idolizes AJ, is close and has worked out with TJ and Chad Johnson was livid he didn't go first round. A lot of Bengals connections.

You know it bro, thinking Zac just needed a full Offseason after a season to know what his team truly needed.

Zac is a young dog and thank God it looks like he is learning on the job. Learning new tricks.

Isn't taking no offers either, he has his guy and rolls. I liked Chinn too who the Panthers jumped right in front of us for
but there was no panic, we already had our pick in. It has been great so far, hoping for an interior Lineman next.

And one that is versatile that can play Tackle like Jon Runyan tomorrow.

[CJD]

YES!!! I got "my guy"!

[samhain]

I'm very happy with it. I like the idea of drafting a weapon for Burrow right away. He's a good hedge against our perpetually injured receivers and hopefully can be a future WR1.
