With La'el on board Daniel Faalele becomes more interesting.

Basically a downward club that pushes the defender straight to the ground face first (opposite of pancake).  It can work. Sometimes. It’s definitely is hard to scout guys like this.Not at #31 for me.

Most of us fall victim to the dreaded snatch trap at some point in our lives.

I wouldn't mind giving him a look in the 2nd or 3rd round.

I think they have put themselves in a great position to take the BPA. Whoever “falls” they will be in position to take. A CB/S/WR/DT (a few of the positions needed for depth/development) can also be picked in later rounds so no need to focus on any position at 31.

The Bengals trend toward BPA all the time w/ some of sense of purpose of course. Heard just this morning that it will be BPA now for sure. Of course that’s on their draft board. This person would know I promise.

That name sounds very familiar, I must of watched him last year and was impressed. What team was Paschal on?

He could be the extra TE in short yardage and goal line and be developed for the future.  I would be ALL OVER THIS GUY.  

He is a Rugby dude so he can catch and is crazy athletic. If he can get low I understand.

Think a future Jonathan Ogden.

Yes, really like Karlaftis, just doubt he falls to us. Ojabo might now with the injury and he is a top talent as a pass rusher.

Also really like Boye Mafe.

Paschal played at UK.

Wanker is a widely used term here as well. Thanks to our convict forefathers. 
No it’s a derivative of my name but I’ve been called many things over the years so whatever cap fits at the time.

Thanks, yes I think I watched Kentucky play a top team last season and Paschal stood out in a great way.

Would love to get him in the mid rounds if we don't get a DE earlier.

With their current Olinemen, I'm more interested in players like Dylan Parham that can back up multiple positions and may mature into a starter down the road after some seasoning to get stronger for the NFL.

For sure what love Parham, he can play Center too.

[NATI BENGALS]

I’m the exact opposite. I was all for rolling the dice on Faalele in the first round before Collins signed. Now that he is signed I probably wouldn’t touch him until the 3rd round.

All the pressure would of been on Faalele to start if we did that and he is extremely raw. No way I was for him before.

Now he could develop behind a stud in La'el Collins with no pressure. I don't understand.

Dylan Parham had a great draft process starting to hear him as one of the best IOL in the draft class and could go mid to high second round.

Im glad we don't have to roll the dice on him being a starter right off the bat.  Give him a few years of development and he might be an all-pro.  One thing is for sure he will be one hell of a run blocker from day 1.  Would love to have a guy like him as an extra tackle for short yardage and goalline.

I think it is more difficult to teach his movement skills than to get stronger in the gym.

I don’t think Faalele is going to get more agile, but I think Parham can get stronger.

On the flip side you can't teach being 6'8 and powerful.
