|BlackJesus| Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 39 minutes ago, BlackJesus said: My first full mock draft In my opinion, I ended up getting the best DT, Nickel, RB, and P in the entire draft. Plus a physical freak with the longest arms (Paul) at RT. Essentially getting immediate or eventual replacements for Reader, Jonah, Hilton, Mixon, and Robbins. Plus high ceiling sleeper guys to develop in the later rounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I began to notice Fuaga early in the year. He’s a lot more than just brute strength. It may be sacrilege, but he just looked like a right-side Sewell to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicoli Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Honestly, Fuaga, Alt and Powers-Johnson are the only 3 OL I’d feel comfortable spending a top 20 pick on. The more I study the group, the more I’m convinced trading back is the way to go this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we likely sign a transitional RT, (Elumanor seems to want to come here) so really any of the guys available at 18 I'm ok with. But it means that Frank Pollack wont have any excuses about whether he can coach up a guy or not because whomever we take will be "his guy". So the likely hood of any RT rookie starting day 1 is not super high imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mims Guyton and Paul might sit and learn a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May end up being a Jordan Battle situation where the rookie ends up starting by the end of the year. Hopefully not because the other guy sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF Elumanor signs Fuaga could backup plus push Volson for his job. Either way I'd love to get the beastly boy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you're really saying is you won't be watching any college football in 2024 (unless you're a Beaver or Cougar fan?) 🙃 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|BlackJesus| Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Last year the Bengals missed out on 6'8 Dawand Jones and his ungodly reach. This year there is one player with similar reach to Dawand ... The 6'7 Patrick Paul. Dawand Jones 36 3/8" arms 87 7/8" wingspan Patrick Paul 36 1/4" arms 86 1/4" wingspan ... He can basically touch the ground while standing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul likely goes between our pick at 18 and when we pick again in Rd 2. I would ecstatic if he was there to take in Rd 2 though and did so in my mock above. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like mims and the Oregon state kid if we miss out on them I'd like Paul because the Penn st kid and alt will be long gone I think when we pick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 I’m not much for “highlight videos”, but this is a small sample size of what Fuaga brings. A natural RT. Not an LT…and absolutely not a guard. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's exactly what Herbert needs and Harbaugh will oblige him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
