That distinction means less and less the closer we get to the draft. By the time it starts he will be an instant upgrade over _______________ and primed to change the NFL forever.

It is but it is hard to believe White would have anything close to a 21.4% miss rate in the pros. The reality is Burfict was terrible last year and the contract he just received from the Raiders is indicative of his level of play last year. Nickerson was hardly better.

I'm not disputing that it was Burfict's time to go, or that the Bengals need a LB. White is right near the top of the list of guys I hope are there at 11, but comparing stats between college and NFL players makes about as much sense to me as comparing a college baseball player hitting .450 to Brice Harper's average.

Totally agree. Plenty of stud college LBs never amounted to anything in the Pros. At one time Burfict was one of the best in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluhartz Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 I have a friend who works at Hyde Park (fancy joint in C-Bus) and he waited on Jon Gruden, Antonio Brown and Mr. Haskins tonight.. I would actually love for them to draft him if we can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassanos Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Could they really go Best WR in the draft (Metcalf) then QB in the second round (Jones) Like they did Green and Dalton? Zac with his own QB/WR combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zac with his own QB/WR combo I honestly would not be surprised if the top ten from another thread were off the board. And the Bengals did not trade up or even down. You know how Mikey gets all googly moogly giddy over wide receivers. John Ross being the most recent example with so many other pressing needs still on the board.

oldschooler Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 11 BENGALS Jonah Williams, OT, Alabama With both linebackers off the board the Bengals get one of the best offensive linemen in the class; Williams can play right tackle in the NFL and even kick inside to guard if needed. 10 (42) BENGALS Daniel Jones, QB, Duke Andy Dalton has two years left on his current deal and there's no guarantee that he's Zac Taylor's guy; Jones, who has drawn comparisons to Eli Manning, does a lot of things well but no one thing blows you away. 8 (72) BENGALS Blake Cashman, LB, Minnesota Vontaze Burfict is gone and Cashman brings his athleticism, playmaking ability and high football IQ to Cincinnati.

Jason Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Honestly if we don’t get Murray or Haskins (or maybe Lock if the coaches are high on him) I don’t want to use anything higher than a 4 on a QB. The guys we would get in 2 or 3 strike me as Dalton clones. If we can’t upgrade from Dalton then I just want a better backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the draft fell that way, I'd pick Mack Wilson in the second, and Look at Will Grier in the third, if I looked at a QB in the first three at all. Hell, I might just pick another LB at 3 and double up on that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I might just pick another LB at 3 and double up on that group. I am with you. As much crap as Andy gets here it is hard to believe Daniel Jones is going to be much better than him and I can't get on board with wasting a 2nd rounder on a backup. If the strategy is to groom him to be the next Andy Dalton but on a rookie contract, I kinda might understand but meh, these guys are such crap shoots. There were 4 QBs drafted in round one in 2011, only Newton amounted to anything. Only one other, of the 12 total chosen is a starter: Andy Dalton.
