As for the pick, seems like a good move, position of need, mixed with a player ranking that was right around the area he was taken, not sure why there would be any complaints.

There should be no complaints with our first 3 picks. It’s one thing not getting the guys you wanted (I really liked Pittman), but we did not reach, and addressed major needs. All 3 guys should contribute immediately. Best I’ve felt about a draft in years tbh.

If we can get some OL in 4-7 to be competition I’ll be happy with Taylor’s 2nd draft.

I'm happy we got a linebacker at all since Baltimore seems determined to draft ALL of them.

Welcome Mr. Wilson

[Socal Bengals fan]

After watching two full game tape of this guy now I’m kinda luke warm about the pick. He doesn’t shed blocks very well , and he does miss tackles more than he should. Positives is he does seem to play zone coverage very well he will be our Nickle backer but he’s definitely not a big bruising tackling machine he was made out to be. I would still want Akeem Davis Gaither here.

So I'm assuming we will keep Bynes in the middle, with Wilson and Pratt at WILL and SAM. Who lines up where?

Yeah.  That's about 1 good LB every 9.5 years for Marvin.  Pretty damn bad wouldn't you say?

So is Logan going to be tasked with shutting down Lamar Jackson? One hell of a way to start your career.

[Vas Deferens]

THE GOVERNOR!


Love this pick.

He can’t be any worse than Vigil was. Truly one of the most embarrassing lowlights I’ve ever seen a Bengal on.

Looks like a good pick and maybe a little Luke Kuechly in him? That said, I think we should keep drafting LBS and Akeem Davis Gaither I believe is still there in round 4. Also, lets not let Ravens, Steelers and Browns stockpile all the LB talent..Ravens are reloading bigtime...admittedly I like the way they . Its like a Great White Sharks row of teeth, one falls out and another one is ready.

Completely agree. Grabbing another one in the 4th would be a smart move, imo.

Yeah, right, because Logan Wilson has played so great in the NFL.    I have not seen the draft experts around here so excited over a LB since P J Dawson.

Let's pump the brakes a bit here.  Last year at this time Zac was giving Preston Brown a three year extension.



I really like this pick.  I was calling for a LB at #33 and I like Wilson's resume.

He prefers "Logan"

[Bengalitis]

If he can run sideways, then he will be an upgrade from any LB we currently have. Having teams stuff it down the sides 2 seasons in a row is unforgivable.

[Nati#1]

I'm ready for us to fire Duke Tobin..he doesnt know talent.

[yellowxdiscipline]

Time will tell on Logan, but he seems like a good pick to me. High motor, instinctive guy.

The more highlights n game film I'm watching on this guy.   The more I don't like the pick...    he's better than Vigil I believe n can play zone coverage.     As far as downhill thumper like Murray, Brooks, he is not.   More like Vigil in that respect .   We were 2 pick a away from Willie Gay Jr who just explodes off the screen   damn .

We are a 3-4 D now, we don't have SAM and WILL.  MLB, ILB and OLB now.  Will be running tons of nickel and dime meaning only 1 or 2LBers on the field at all.  I know it is a hybrid but LBer will be different this year.  2 LBers with Williams, Bates and Bell on the filed and 4 DL with ends like Hubbard and Lawson able to drop in coverage (LBers) but still DEs.  Just my opinion but I do not think that LBer was a super high priority that others thought on here.  A 3 or 4 LBer set will be very limited (meaning true LBers like Pratt, Bynes, Wilson and so on).

[Nicomo Cosca]

Are people really talking about firing Tobin? Lol

His picks are grading out very well so far. You guys are too much.

I agree that we will usually see just two true LBs on the filed at the same time, but I felt the position was still a huge need because Bynes is not very good.
