So 77 and the rest. What do you think about this guy? I dont think we should draft him but will he go ahead of us? That would mean someone will slide a little and give us a tough choice maybe.

I rarely rule a player completely out, especially a guy as talented as Murray. This guy plays like a turbo-charged version of Lamar Jackson. Better arm as well. If Murray were six-foot four, he'd probably go number one overall.
I still like the Bengals going with Devin White at number eleven and adding a rookie QB later in the draft. Their best bet may be to wait until next year.
And NO TANNEHILL!

Always getting balls batted down. The Tannehill idea is the dumbest idea I have heard. I would also wait until next draft to get a QB. In fact, if they were to entertain any type of trade for Dalton I would ask for a future draft pick so we could trade up next year need be.

In fact, if they were to entertain any type of trade for Dalton I would ask for a future draft pick so we could trade up next year need be. That's my thinking. The Bengals, whether they admit it or not, are rebuilding. That takes a few years to complete. Therefore, they shouldn't feel pressed to draft a new QB this year. Drafting a QB in 2020 may be the smart path to travel. However, I would like to see them take a flyer on one of the lesser known QB's in this years draft that they think has a chance of becoming a really good one in time. (That's why I had them taking QB Clayton Thorson out of Northwestern in my mock draft). I personally think the Bengals will draft a QB this year and it may come as early as round one or two with that QB being Will Grier. The Bengals haven't been tied to Grier that much, but my gut says he's on their radar. I realize Grier doesn't have the tall stature that most teams desire, but his arm, accuracy and competitiveness is very high. He just looks and plays like a QB that is tailor made for the Bengals and John Ross. Actually, the main problem I have with Grier isn't his height or lack thereof, it's the simplified system he played in at WVU. Can he transition to a more complex offensive system? That's the question.
