Jeb Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Word is this guy will be a handful for Zimmer. Saban had to sit on this guy to do things right. He has a bit of the Odell complex (wants to do things his way). However, he is coming into Zimmer's system, ...and Zimmer is king here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texbengal Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I think they have a much tighter room with good leaders so guys like Clements and Hall can sit on his ass, in addition to Zimmer, if he acts up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocalBengalEd Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Kirkpatrick is the best tackling cb to come out since Winfield. He reminds me of a better Ike Taylor of the Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurnsBengal Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Anybody have any idea what this foo' is talking about? I obviously heard about the January weed arrest...what is this? [quote][b]17 (17) Cincinnati Bengals (from Oakland): [/b]CB Dre Kirkpatrick, Alabama The Bengals' secondary is littered with question marks, with Leon Hall coming off injury and Nate Clements and Terence Newman showing their age. [size=5][b]Many teams removed Kirkpatrick from their draft boards after an on-campus incident the week before the draft[/b][/size], yet the Bengals have been more lenient of high-risk talent in the selection process and could benefit if Kirkpatrick can find a way to stay out of trouble and mature. Mike Brown has a history of selecting high-risk-high-reward talent and rolled the dice again.

Bengals1181 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 picks 15 and 19 are signed and pick 16 is rumored to be close. I imagine Kirkpatrick will be signed sometime before the end of May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
