Most Wanted

[NATI BENGALS]

Who do you want the most? No matter which round. Which prospect would you be most happy that we come out of the draft with? Whether it’s a late round gem or first rounder.


For me I’ve got a pretty big man crush on Jalen Travis. From Ivy League to Iowa state he was a starter at RT and LT. 6’8” 340lbs with a 35” vert is insane. He is massive and I thought he handled himself well at the senior bowl against top competition. I think he would be our swing tackle this year and possible future LT.

My most wanted feels like a tie between Xavier Watts and Tate Ratledge.

Cam Skattebo is another favorite but I’ve got a lot. lol

I like all of these guys too ha ha

I will throw another name out there...

Jared Wilson, Center Georgia, could play Guard to start off his career but switch to Center after Ted leaves.

Man if we could somehow finesse Tate Ratledge in the second round I'd be ecstatic.

Banks. I think they need an offensive tackle that can play guard and another pure guard.

We haven't met with Banks though, so I have closed my mind to him. Just heard we met with Simmons if we go with an early OL it probably 
would be him.

I was close to claiming Watts. He’s probably been the one I’ve taken in mocks the most.

I have been over thinking posting a mock.

My one, two punch to reshape the defense,

Jihaad Campbell - LB

then

Xavier Watts - S

Replaces Pratt, and gives Golden his viper, which is needed and a priority, and put Stone on the bench for a safety that knows the defense.

But playing by the rules, Campbell...

For me, it's the guy with the lowest missed tackle rate (7.8%) and the highest RAS (10.0) of any noteworthy Safety prospect in this draft, Nick Emmanwori from South Carolina. It's an either, or, or use as needed with him. He has the size to match up with TEs, the short space quickness to cover slot, and the range, speed, and sense of where the play is going to play deep.

I'm thoroughly convinced that he is the player who could make the most dramatic impact on this team in his first season.
