Rounds 2 & 3 - Draft Night Thread (2025)

[|BlackJesus|]

Last night of the 32 picks 15 came from the SEC and 11 from the Big 10. 26/32. 

 

Tonight you will see more guys from other lesser conferences, but as for me I would stay in the 2 big boy conferences if possible.

Every pick until 49 I'm going to be worried about hearing Tate Ratledge's name ...

We have to get business in the front and party in the rear ♥️

Night 1 of the draft gets most of the hype, but the good teams usually build their teams on night 2.

Historically, the Bengals usually draft best on Day 2. It's their specialty.

Me too. He's my man-crush. No idea in the third other than maybe another DL or a LB. Only skill position player I'm interested in therre  is Skattebo.

And, very consistently, the fan reactions are (in no particular order): 

 

“Who?”

”Him?”

”What?”

”He’s great!”

”He’ll do”

”Off the page!”

Heart breaking prediction: Tate R and Jonah S are both gone before 49.

... Even more heart breaking is Tate is on the board at 49 and we pass on him ...

 

I might not ever forgive Duke.  😢

Add Emmonwori and I'll be sad too.

Who's announcing our 2nd round pick?

[gupps]

NFL has SAvenaia at 47 and Ratledge at 62 of BPA. Soi theres hope

[Jamie_B]

I googled it's Krumrie.

 

Also Google AI already broke the news.

 

The Bengals announced their second-round draft pick, No. 49 overall, in the 2025 NFL Draft on Friday, April 25th. They selected Xavier Watts, a safety from Notre Dame. The pick was announced by Bengals legend Tim Krumrie, a 2024 Ring of Honor inductee. The draft took place in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

If the likes of Tate and Emmanwori are off the board, I'd be very happy with JTT or Nick Scourton. Both will be NFL studs.

Do we think they would double up on DE?
