The Bengals pick almost last at 31 every round. I fail to see the TV excitement in that. I can go on internet and see who Bengals took. As I've said many decades on here, I would rather the Bengals go to The Super Bowl and pick last than be in last place over the decades with Draft Day as our losing teams big day.
So the Draft will start and I hate the draft and the nonsense that goes with it. Hours of nonsense until Bengals pick around last at end of Day One. They often go to a commercial when Bengals draft. Bengals do NOT need me scouting the draft board. I'll read about whoever they draft later on internet.
With Bengals picking almost last in all rounds, I refuse to hear the draft hype over all the other teams. I only care about Bengals. I like football, but The Draft Show is pretty boring. Many of these picks never pan out and make it big in The NFL. ESPN and NFL Network act like teams just won the Super Bowl because they drafted Joe Blow from Anywhere University.
I have confidence in Super Bowl Bengals making the best picks they can. I don't need to watch or hear all the other teams picking before us at 31.

Thanks, I was really wondering if Kevin from TBB would be watching the draft this year.

Good deal Kevin enjoy yourself.
As for me I love the game and especially the draft. The draft is an event and I want to see the it when the Bengals decide who the newest member of the franchise will be! To each his own I guess.

To me, the draft up to the Bengals pick just builds the drama. You learn pick by pick who they WON'T be getting. After the Bengals do pick the first time, it does put somewhat of a damper on it for me- till they pick again of course.

Will pay attention for sure but won't be glued to the TV until closer to the Bengals pick.

Damn it! Usually I get a notification every time Kevin gives an update on his personal choices. Sorry I'm late to the party guys!
I would like to let everyone know that I will be watching the draft regardless of which round we are picking in this year. I would go on, but I would hate to take Kev's spotlight.

Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

I'll watch the draft because I enjoy it. It's fun for me to watch these young men that worked hard to achieve their dreams get picked even if they are not drafted by the Bengals. Even considering later round picks we are talking about players that are in the top percent of all football players. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to get to that point.
That said, I hope the Steelers draft poorly and every pick they make this year is a bust.

This is why I try to watch the 1st round, and maybe later rounds if I'm hoping for a particular player. I'll watch the 1st round this year to see who we get, but after that I'll be interested but I'm not really pulling for any particular player to come to Cincy, so it's more just entertainment and to see who the other AFCN teams pick.
But, to pile on... I heard sponsors were cancelling their commercials because Kevin isn't going to be watching....

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

I take it this didn't go as intended lol.
For solidarity I decided to contribute tho. My family gives me shit over how opposite my approach is @ the draft every year, as in watching each day even when it's in the form of a ticker showing me the pick. I sometimes acknowledge how silly it is at times when the sun is shining outside on a Saturday while I'm following it lol.

I'll probably tune in and out a bit just to see how things are falling in round 1 and 2. I wanna see who the Packers/Vikings pick as well because they are my local teams. But after round 2 I'll definitely lose interest and just watch the after-coverage of who we picked.
(I take it the point of the thread was for people to share their draft plans)
