Palmer4HOF Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I voted for a trade simply because I don't think the 17th pick brings with it too much value... I believe that the posistions we want (DT, DE, MLB, SS, TE, WR), we will be able to draft down for as long as that standout player isn't there at the 17th pick. Now say a guy like Williams or Rolle or a standout player was out 17, I would be all for taking him but i wouldn't mind seeing 2 2nd round picks (I dont know if anyteam will be willing to move up for a 2nd rounder tho) so that we could get a TE, C, MLB, SS all on day 1.

[right][post="65070"][/post][/right][/quote] WE won't sign any more FA's as the team is only about $200,000 below the cap(Rudi's salary still counts for $6.1million this year in the first year of his contract). I reckon ML will resign Braham and Reggie Myles and possibly one or two other in-house players to one year contracts. That's it until the draft!

Guest BlackJesus Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I've decided that I think the Bengals should see if Crowder is there at # 17 .... if not trade down to the high 20's and draft C Chris Spencer in the 1st.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishBengal Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I think we whoever we draft in round 1 we need to view as soneone who will be a starter in the team this year. With that in mind SS, TE, or DE are the best positions to draft. If we draft Travis Johnson who I rate, would he be an immediate starter - it would be a waste of 1st round money if he isn't. Also I would definitely take a centre in round 2(or 3 if any good ones do fall which I doubt). Centre is a more important need than TE and MLB in this draft and is on par with our need at SS. Ideally I would take a C, SS, DE in the first 3 round in any order as long as we get good ones. ML won't necessarily take the best player available in the first 2 rounds and will draft for need instead. English Bengal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][post="64943"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post][/right][/quote] My thoughts exactly. Either him or a pass rushing DE. Marvin wants more pressure on the QB, and we haven't done anything to improve the pass rush. If Nate is healthy we won't use any early picks on LB. We need to give our rookies (Miller, Johnson, Abdulah) a chance to develop. In fact i would say that if Nate is healthy LB is possibly our deepest position. If Warrick is healthy WR is one of our deepest positions. We really need a SS bad, but I think we can get a SS in the second, or maybe even third round. We need a C immediately, and depth at G and OT. I bet we definitely take an O-lineman on the first day, but again we may be able to get a C in the second or third. We really need a pass-catching TE. I believe Matt Jones will be the steal of this years draft. In conclusion I have no idea what Marvin will do. After watching last years draft I'm not even going to make a guess at who we will chose. I would love to get Jones though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|Lucid| Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 I picked trade, but really I should have picked 'other' since i really have no way of knowing what we should do with our first round pick. Everything is FAR too fluid right now to make any kind of forecast. I would HIGHLY doubt that even Marvin could tell you what we are going to do with our first round pick. In fact, I don't think anyone will know what that will be until draft day. When players start going off the board that will determine wether we trade up trade down, stay where we are and who we will pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
