JBandJoeyV Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Who here thinks its possible we go offense with our first three picks? OG, RB, and WR in some order or another. I just dont see them going DE anymore with Harvey and Anderson combined with Geathers, MJ, and Dunlap. Dont think they need to go CB with 4 first rounders on the roster (although they could if the guy they want is there). Dont think they will go Safety, Nelson is starting FS and I dont think Barron is enough of an upgrade over Mays to make him worthy of a first. LB I think is possible, but I wouldnt be surprised if they were content going into the offseason with Howard, Rey, Keith, Muck, Moch and either Lawson or BJ. DT I guess could be a possibility, but I want the first rounders to start. Would they really need someone to start over Peko or Atkins? I think the two biggest weaknesses right now are RG and WR2. Its possible they dont draft a RB, but I think a lot of people think they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengals1181 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I think after today first round DE may be off the table, but I'm thinking 2 offensive picks and 1 defensive pick. And I'm starting to think TE Coby Fleener at #21 wouldn't shock me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think theyd go with Aj, the two TEs, Binns/Simpson, Shipley and a RB that can catch out of the backfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] well, I think if you go with Fleener you'd kind of be going like the patriots and having a lesser #2 WR but two really good TE's to go with Gresham. It would allow you to take a chance on a guy like Binns as the #2. Fleener is also a pretty good blocker. The thought of taking a TE in the first round with Gresham coming off of a pro bowl year is odd, but a weapon is a weapon and I don't necessarily think that bringing in fleener would lessen gresham's role any.

Le Tigre Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 To tell you the truth, if both DeCastro and Cordy are available at both picks...wouldn't shock me if they both were chosen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Like I said...wouldn't surprise me on both. But, more than likely not. Looking more to me now like Luke and probably Cordy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThurmanMunster Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 We won't go DE but i can see us going DT in round 1. I see DT/Kendall Wright/Kuelchy/CB/Decastro/Glenn/trade back for RB are the options at 17 and 21 i dont think this team will want floyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.A.B. Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I hope not. We need LB help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I can't see them doing that unless they plan on using DeCastro as a center. He's supposed to be super smart and have a great football mind, so it might be possible. If they were going to grab 2 guys like that, I think it would be more likely that they went with 1 of the guards and then traded back to get Konz and a DB/WR/RB (one of the 3 depending on BPA).

happyrid Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 My guess has been 3 out of the first 4 picks on offense. Something like Cordy Glenn, Rueben Randle, and Doug Martin would be a hell of a start and, combined with Andy, AJ, Jermaine, Jordan, Whit and Andre would give us one of the best young groups of offensive talent in the NFL.

I'd be shocked. It's really hard for me to believe the Bengals won't use one of those first round picks on a cornerback. It's also hard to believe that they won't use one to add another weapon for Andy Dalton. My prediction... Dre Kirkpatrick & Alshon Jeffery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldcat Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 So far they seem to make sure that they have no worse than a 2/3 1/3 split in the early rounds, so I would expect that to remain the same, especially now that there are no 'Gotta Have' holes to fill except for WR2. So I would expect at least 1 O and 1 D in the first three rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 I can see a guard wr cb and rb for the first four depends on what's there also could see a lb. At this point its going to be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrlnutz Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 I would like to go BDPA at 17 and BOPA at 21. I think they go against the grain and take G and WR unless TRich drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange 'n Black Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 I don't think there's any way they pass on a corner unless Gilmore and Jenkins grade out too low on their board. We have a ton of talent at CB but nothing guaranteed past a season or two. At the same time, DeCastro or Glenn are a lock for stripes unless they're gone by 17 and 21 respectively.

snarkster Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 I'd like to see them re-sign Jerome Simpson or sign Jerricho Crotchery, but they might wait until after the draft to see how it shakes out. There's pretty solid depth at WR. I could see them going WR in the 1st or 2nd and then taking another in the mid/late rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Before we added Wharton I thought DeCastro or Glenn was a real possibility. I think now they will go back to their belief that guard is not a first round position. And I really don't think they will risk Jenkins. Most of the guys they have added so far are high character guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
