Bengals1181 Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 [quote name='dabengals12' timestamp='1335576677' post='1124751'] I was mouthing the words Lamar Miller when they said Devon Still... Kind of disappointed with this pick. Pead went a round and a half before he was projected, we are going to mess around and be RBless... Smh... [/quote] a RB would be nice, but its not essential for the Bengals this year. CB, OG, WR and some form a pass rusher (apparently they think still) were all higher priorities.

NASTYNATI Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Not a fan of this pick. has battled injury his entire career, lacks pass rush ability and way to high for a rotational D-Lineman imo. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phatcat Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I like the pick. The Dline was our strength when everyone was healthy. Build a great 8 man rotation. It has the potential to be significantly better than last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I watched the BAMA and ILL videos... My take: Very limited on moves. He has a bull rush and swims/pushes aside more than most (tells me he's pretty strong and has decent hands). I think the lower body doesn't play very fast except for when he shows flashes of Geno. Sometimes he'll burst right out of his stance, almost unblocked, and gets in the backfield. Sometimes you'll see him disappear. He's a big guy so maybe it's fatigue? BIG 10 DPOTY... can't really argue that. In all, like I said, shows flashes of greatness but disappears a lot and to me, while maybe contrary to reports, looked like he stood around a bit much if he didn't beat his man right off the get go. If Zimmer likes him, I like him. Go Bengals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NASTYNATI Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 [quote name='Bengals1181' timestamp='1335577272' post='1124782'] no he doesn't. [/quote] [b] Draft Analysis:[/b] Mayock's take: "The Bengals need a big body behind Geno Atkins who can come in and play on run downs. A lot of people thought a year ago that Still would be a top-20 pick, but his tape is indifferent and inconsistent." [b] Weaknesses[/b] While Still can rush the passer, it is rare that he actually gets there to record the sack, as his athletic ability is rather average once he is in the open field. He works tremendously in tight quarters but doesn't display that quickness or explosion when free. This is true of his play in pursuit, as well. Once the ball gets past him, he usually is done for the play. Poor choice of words in my original post...Basically he can rush the passer, but doesnt do shit once he gets beyond the O-Line.

Mikey6866 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Still is a good pick. Was hoping for Lamichael James or Lavonte David but Still was probably BPA on their board, and he is a good player. 3rd round I want Chris Givens and Chris Rainey.
