whodeybengals59 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 [url="http://www.draftshowcase.com/MarcusMcNeil.htm"]This guy is the next Willie Anderson[/url] Stacy Andrews is never going to play at Willies level. What about a guy like Marcus Mcneill of Auburn and grooming him for 1-2 years under Willie? Mcneil is 6'9 340 and projected mid first round. If he falls to us, he is good enough value that I could see us taking him.

whodeybengals59 Posted February 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 ^Did I mention Willie is not getting any younger and blocking for Carson will be a priority? I dont know about you but I dont trust Stacy Andrews enough....I dont want more people taking shots at Carson. I could see us taking him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodeybengals59 Posted February 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I agree, next year would be the year to take an OT. But theres no guarantee that there is going to be a 6'9 340 offensive tackle like this guy in next years draft. I would like to wait another year too, i'm just saying dont be shocked if we did draft this guy....Marvin drafts Best Player Available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodeybengals59 Posted February 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I just thought of something....If we drafted him Stacy Andrews could play right Guard if Bobbie left (he is a free agent next year) Woah ....could you imagine the size of the right side of the line? 6'7 350 guard and a 6'9 340 tackle + Rudi= like running down hill..................damn that would be amazing.

Jason Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I like this guy too. He made the catch of the tipped ball at the senior bowl, and looked fairly athletic. I wouldn't object to the pick, depending on who else was available at the time, and who we pick up in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Dan_Bengals_FL- Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Why are you so quick to sour on Stacy Andrews. Give that kid a shot, I think he has some potential. We also have Koostria and Kieft as potential replacements. I would look for another position first round this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Bunghole| Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Koostria sucks. We need Guichek and Kieft to step it up. I think Andrews may be a lost cause. Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiliMVP Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Maybe McNeil can play both offensive and defensive tackle..... [img]http://forum.go-bengals.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/3.gif[/img] I just don't think we would use a first round pick on a right tackle, when 1.) Our defense needs some major help, 2.) The right side is not Carson's blind side, thus is not AS important, and 3.) Good right tackles can be found in the later rounds and in free agency. I do believe though that Kieft and Andrews are more than capable replacements at right tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoBengal Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Don't be surprised if we see Kieft developed into the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sigfox77 Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I believe Guichek will have a starting role on this line..Recall the Jacksonville game he played great going against Henderson and Stroud.. The only way I say we draft a replacement for Willie is if we pick up some guys in FA to sure up the defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fredtoast Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I guarantee that we will draft one or two offensive linemen this year. I just doubt that the will be very high picks. I'm guessing second day picks like last year. Since any O-lineman we draft will not be expected to play much this season I reccomend we draft Albert Toeaina from Tennessee. He is 6'6", 355. He was a juco transfer so he only played two years at UT. He started both years, but everyone agrees that he is a raw prospect and needs a lot of work on his technique. We can coach a player and improve his technique, but we can't coach a guy into being 6'6", 355. His strenght is awesome, and the report from the Senior Bowl weigh in was that he carries his weight very well. He played tackle at UT, but I've seen him projected as aguard in the NFL. I guess this is because at the moment he lacks the good footwork required for pass protection. If we can turn Stacy Andrews, who barely saw the field in college, into an OT then we should be able to do the same with a guy who was good enough to start two years for one of the best programs in the country.
