We have 2 picks in the 7th. The 2nd one is from the Price trade I believe.

Well that’s a terrible plan.

The NFL Network analysis knew the guy well and said he will be a linebacker in the NFL. Said he already has bulked up to LB size. The NFL analyst liked him a lot as a LB.

Who? Weatherford or Anderson? I assume the former.

His listed weight is 208 so I hope he put on 25 pounds.

Yeah, I know. He didn’t look small at all to me in that clip. Just pretty fit (no big gut). Maybe the huge empty building threw you.

Tycen Anderson. The one the Bengals picked.

He was 209 at the combine less than 2 months ago and he's going to be 23 this season so it's not like he got out of college early either. He's starting the season suspended for PEDs if he's bulked up to LB size in less than 2 months.

Only 1 pick left. The other was part of the recent trade up.

[CloeHokie]

Plenty of good wr4 type FA left out there. Did not like trading up but hey if you like a guy get him

[*psychdoctor*]

My favorite picks are volson and Britt.

[matmaven]

Reading up on him … two-time team captain, and coaches
say his leadership rallies the defense … was a high school valedictorian and earned several academic awards at Toledo … his special teams résumé is longer than a roller coaster line at Cedar Point ... He projects as a four-coverage special teamer who can compete for a nickel role on defense.

Core special teams player

Well, that's concerning. Yeah, needs a lot more than 209 for LB position.  But the analyst indicated he knew him well and was very confident he would be a linebacker in the NFL. Thought he would be a very good LB as well.

Realized that as soon as I posted.

Anyway, liked our early picks a lot, but they’re really rolling the dice on Hurst and the big 3 WR’s all staying healthy. You lose one of those guys and Mixon…not good.

Why would he be detailing the person the bengals didn't draft? 

[CloeHokie]

Is any team good if they lose their top WR and RB?

Just sign Justin Jackson at RB in FA and grab one of many WR FA for a WR4

Ofc there’s always drop off, but certain teams have better depth than others. I’m more worried about TE than WR.
