oldschooler Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 77. Sam Hubbard, DE, Cincinnati Bengals His tape is solid, but nothing jumps off the screen. Teams looking for a big time edge rusher won't get too excited by him, but he will appeal to defensive coordinators looking for guys with size and motor to plug into a blitz-heavy, twist-happy defense. Hubbard could become an early starter as a strong-side defensive end for a 4-3 defense. --Lance Zierlein http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000929490/article/mike-mayocks-pickbypick-draft-analysis-for-rounds-23-results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooky Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 I love the buckeyes and liked watching him play, but I can't get stoked over this pick. I don't hate it. I'm OK with it. Just OK. Somebody sell me on this. I want to love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatternMaster Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 I like the pick, but if anyone thinks this means that MJ90 is going to be cut then they are misinformed. Currently the Bengals have 4 DE's on the roster, including Hubbard. http://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchart/CIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah MJ is not really a playmaker and it seems that's what Austin is focused on most. I'm not convinced he is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(clarification of the remark: not intended in a negative or derogatory nature to your post... not trolling). I just think we've seen enough of Michael Johnson, know what he can and can't do, he ain't getting any younger and time to move along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with this team moving into a multiple formatinal look on defense I'm not to sure who is going to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall I see a trend towards ball control & play-action backed by a deep defense while they try to rebuild the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatternMaster Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 When has MB ever cut a vet that had value, whether or not us fans see it or not is irrelevant? When has ML ever started a rookie over a proven vet? The answer to both questions is rarely ever or never. MJ is solid vs the run and can play DT in passing situations. Actually Hubbard is more like MJ90 than any other DE on the roster, he's an effort guy that is stout vs the run but average in pass rush. This isn't the Highlander, there can be more than one.

It seems like it's gonna come down to play making ability first and foremost above versatility though just from what I gather. 10 minutes ago, PatternMaster said: When has MB ever cut a vet that had value, whether or not us fans see it or not is irrelevant?

I'm hoping we can turn the page on past transgressions and play best player available no matter salary or whatever. I think this is one of Beliciks strong suits and why he is successful. Of course he doesn't have an owner sticking his nose into it like our team does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawson is the only hybrid LB/DE on the roster. As far as the DT's I'm assuming you mean DE's. If that is the case MJ is the only one on the roster that has any experience playing DT.

When’s the last time we traded down significantly in the first round and Pickens up a starting offensive tackle? Things seem a bit different.

claptonrocks Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 I see Sam as a 6 or 7 sack guy...help with outside runs and tall enough to make qbs alter their throws or risk a pd... Hometown love for the city.. All around great guy... Nice pick for the defensive line ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
