Jason Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Which former (or current) first round prospect do you think is most likely to drop (for whatever reason) and wind up being a Bengals pick you didn't otherwise think possible? Or will it not happen this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sois Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Fairley will drop to the Bengals. Someone else is going to shoot up, probably a QB. The Bills or Panthers will have to take a look if someone kicks ass at the combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking a Dunlap/Maualuga like slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDawgBengal Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I am just going to guess Pouncey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sois Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Oh, I thought you meant slide in general. Everyone has him penciled in at #1, I feel he will be there for the Bengals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengals1181 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I could see Akeem Ayers sliding out of the first round, but I don't want us to take him. WR's like Greg Little, Austin Pettis, and Terance Toliver are all guys who in normal years would be late first early second round guys who could be there for the taking at the top of the 3rd because its such a deep WR class. Stephen Paea's another guy I think could drop to the 2nd round, and who I also wouldn't want us to take. I'm really hoping someone like Gabe Carimi is still there. He and Whit would make a great combo on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tybo Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is Cam Heyward a possibility in 2? I think he was not in Kiper's latest first round mock if I heard correct. That would make three defensive ends on our roster that at one point were ranked as top ten-ish prospects that fell to us in round 2 or three.

BBR Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 I expect them to be looking at whether or not they should take Carimi in the 2nd (my answer is yes) and Greg Romeus in the 3rd. As far as the deep receiver class, it's likely that they could grab a guy like Ronald Johnson in the 4th. So, just for fun (let's assume I'm wrong and they take Fairley) 1.) DT Nick Fairley 2.) OT Gabe Carimi 3.) DE Greg Romeus 4.) WR Ronald Johnson That would be a pretty stacked draft (I don't expect them to have a shot a Fairley though - if that's the route they want to go then replace Fairley with Marcel Dareus). They'd still need to figure something out at one of the offensive guard spots, strong linebacker and safety though. An O-Line of something like Whit-Carimi-Cook-Smith-Collins or Whit-Collins-Cook-Smith-Carimi would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengals1181 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Cam could be a 4-3 DT, but he's not in the class of Fairley or Dareus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
