snarkster Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Jason Oweh (Penn St), Carlos Basham (Wake Forest), Rashad Weaver (Pitt), Joe Tryon (Washington), Dare Odeyingbo (Vandy), Patrick Jones (Pitt), Zaven Collins (Tulsa), Joseph Ossai (Texas) There are several Edge-type guys that may be available when the Bengals pick in the second or even third round. Add the best Bengals fit of these guys to Hubbard, Hendrickson & Kareem and I'd feel better aout or Edges than I was. The number of DLine prospects & WR's that may be there in that range, have been leaving me more and more open to trading back a few spots to pick up another 3rd. If they could do that and still grab Slater, I'd go for it. Saw one mock that had us grabbing DT Christian Barmore (Alabama) with our 2nd pick. I'd love it but that ain't happening.

Hes a good tackle but not a 3tech which the team desperately needs..ive stated earlier that Pitts Jaylen Twyman fits that role perfectly but round 2 might be a reach.. 3rd round for sure..

spicoli Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Just threw a quick 5 rounder together while waiting for my food to arrive. I’m assuming they’re going to sign at least one G and a WR in FA. Not too shabby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Togai vs Jaylen Twyman to me is close for that position..different traits but both effective.. You know that Tre Smith wont be there with pick 111...hell he might go before both tackles ...

spicoli Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Honestly I’m not sure about either one of Rousseau or Trey Smith. For some reason I get the feeling that the hype within NFL circles doesn’t come close to equaling what the internet scouts think about either of them. I could see both of them lasting much longer than anticipated actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spicoli Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 It’s not his athletic traits that I’m worried about, he has some work ethic red flags to work through ....which is never a good sign.

membengal Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 So every mock from me from now on will just be offensive lineman. Maybe sprinkle in two defensive lineman. But the other six are gonna be lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if we sign Golladay, Swell is gone and Chase is on the board? Do we draft Chase and have Golladay, Chase, Boyd and Higgins? I guess if Golladay is here on a one year deal that’s not a bad thing.

Ever since they came out and said Jonah isn't moving off LT, I'm coming around to being OK with them taking slater. I think his experience at RT, physicality and positional versatility might be an better fit (especially if they could trade down a bit), pick up an extra 3rd and still get Slater (or one of the other top RT's). Draft 01 Rahawn Slater (OL) Northwestern 02 Joe Tryon (DE) Washington 3A Brevin Jordan (TE) Miami (FL) 3B Jay Tufele (DT) USC 04 Elijah Moore (WR) Ole Miss 05 Quinn Meinerz (OL) Wis-Whitewater 06 Kuony Deng (LB) California 7A Mark Webb (FS) Georgia 7B Jose Borregales (PK) Miami (FL) Re-sign LS Clark Harris RB Samje Perine SS Brandon Wilson QB Brandon Allen LB Josh Bynes CB Jalen Davis CB Tony Brown PT Kevin Huber * Free Agents DE Trey Hendrickson (NOS) CB Mike Hilton (PIT) CB Chidobe Awuzi (DAL) DT Larry Ogunjobi (CLE) RT Reilly Reiff (MIN) WR Kenny Golladay (DET) or (????) Another thought is to sign an OG in FA and then deal a future pick (22) to the Rams for Havenstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Riley Reiff is coming for a visit so there's some mutual interest. Gabe Jackson got traded to Seattle (who already had a better RG). Bengals should be checking in with Larry Warford. And talk to the Rams or Saints about Havenstein or Ramczyk. Either of them would be better than Reif and cheaper too.

MichaelWeston Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I can't tell you how frustrated I am that very smart people think we should pick Chase or Pitts now.

I_C_Deadpeople Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I would still go OL at 5 (better yet trade down a few spots and go OL) and then go OL again in either round 2 or 3. Plus sign another vet guard. THEN we will start to look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rieff is 32 years old and we are missing at least 2 other starters on the line. We haven't heard how long Reiff's contract is for but he's got a good chance of playing it out. 32 isn't old for a lineman. Since Williams has missed a lot of time his first 2 years we need a backup plan but it doesn't require a first round pick. If we trade down, someone like Vera-Tucker or Slater as a guard makes sense. But we could also go for a pass catcher or Parsons in round 1 after a tradedown and be fine. Unless they want to move Williams to guard, taking Sewell at 5 no longer makes sense. Yes, we need 2 guards better than we currently have under contract. But we should be able to get Quinton Spain back at a reasonable price. He and XSF are both better than Jordan or Fred Johnson and provide at least semi-competent play. If we can sign a good veteran guard (Warford would be my choice but things are awfully quiet around him so maybe he's retiring) or Turner (he was hurt last year but is he healthy again) or maybe Reiter. If we upgrade at RG, we'd have the Spain/XSF combo at LG going into the draft and could take someone in round 2 or 3 and be set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
