The thing with Fuller is speed. He has been clocked as fast as 4.27. His speed alone will keep them from double teaming Green.
I'm not so sure they take a WR in rd 1. If there is a defensive player ranked higher they might wait till rd 2.
I wouldn't be surprised either if they draft another OT high.
They are putting Ced at right tackle. Whitworth only here one year. Unless they plan on moving ced to LT next year and putting Fisher at RT. They need another LT. Thoughts on this 77?

Bengals are hosting Branden Lafell from Patriots for visit. Like I said he was released not a FA.

I know exactly how you feel Rod. The Bengals have been a snake-bitten franchise throughout the years, so drafting a WR that's known for having bad hands is risky. But then again, no prospect is perfect including Doctson who is undersized. Could this lead to Doctson being on the IR quite often due to various injuries? Who knows but I do get where you're coming from.
Having said this, Coleman or Treadwell may be the best choice after all and don't count out Tyler Boyd.

When is the draft BTW? It's the first 10 days of April isn't it? I'm getting kind of anxious to see what happens now!

Bengals had private workout Tyler Irving RB San Jose State. 5'9 192 lbs. He is a quick back. 4.41 40...He's a mid to late rd pick. He would most likely be a backup/ return specialist.
Average 5.4 yards per carry. 1601 yards 13 TDs. returned 3 kickoffs for TDs and 2 punts for TDs. We definitely need a game changer in the return game.

Whitworth only here one year. Unless they plan on moving ced to LT next year and putting Fisher at RT. They need another LT. Thoughts on this 77? I think we're good at OT but I did bring up the possibility of the Bengals drafting a top G to prepare for the possibility of losing Kevin Zeitler in free agency next year. I think a lot of the top WRs in this draft are going to fall to round two. This is a weak WR class at the top but there's some nice mid-round talent. Truthfully, these WRs are hard for me to gauge and I think that goes back to the overall weakness at the position. Basically, they all have flaws, some more glaring than others and that's why it may be smart of the Bengals to trade down, get the player they wanted all along (Darron Lee/Sheldon Rankins/Andrew Billings/Vernon Davis?), pick a WR in round two (Michael Thomas/Tyler Boyd?) and add a DT (Maliek Collins?) or a DE (Matt Judon?) in round three and a S (Miles Killebrew?) with the extra pick they garnered by trading down in round one. They could then go with WR Keyarris Garrett of Tulsa in round four thus filling the losses of both Marvin Jones and Mohammed Sanu. Lee would be a player that could be used multiple ways and thus produce all over the field. One of the aforementioned DTs would finally give Geno Atkins the help he's needed up front for years. And then there's the chance that a C such as Matt Tuerk could be available in round five thus giving Russell Bodine a run for his money. What I like about this scenario is that the Bengals will fill free agency losses with arguably better players while also adding some beef up front in the middle of both lines. And adding a playmaker like Darron Lee in round one is just gravy. |

Their 1st pick imo, will be either CB, LB or WR. I would say which ever BPA is of those 3. You could even throw in DE. They will take BPA between defense and WR. Like I said should be a fun draft to watch.

I don't know about being right as I rarely try to guess as to what the Bengals will do come draft time or any other time for that matter of fact. If I'm guessing as to who they'll draft or what strategy they'll use I'll say so. My posts generally revolve around what I think they should do or hypotheticals in general. I still think there's a chance they could target OLB/DE Noah Spence or OLB Darron Lee in round one because both are big playmakers with speed who are capable of making plays all over the field. Personally, I would like to see the Bengals trade down in round one (unless there's a stud available that they would be foolish to pass up.) and one or two more times throughout the draft. There's a lot of mid-round talent at several positions in this draft and many of these players are very comparable to first round prospects. I agree that CB is high on their list and if Mackenzie Alexander is available when they pick, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if he's their selection. Lewis looked shell-shocked late in the season when Adam Jones and some other DBs were injured and weren't able to play. He's not gonna forget that come draft time. I really like DE Matt Judon as a third or fourth round prospect. He's fast and he has a knack for getting to the QB in a hurry. And with Michael Johnson not playing like the Johnson of old, an upgrade may be needed sooner than expected. WR Keyarris Garrett is another guy I'm high on as well as WR Cody Core. WR Roger Lewis may be this drafts hidden gem, but he's the guy that was accused of rape twice by the same girl. I believe he was acquitted of all charges. If the Bengals find out that he's clean and the only problem he has is a messed up girlfriend, I want them to draft him. He's a player. |

Evan Boehm -Center workout Josh Doctson WR workout Quintin Gause -OLB Proday Interview Lars Hanson -OT Proday Conner McGovern OG workout Stephane Nembot OT Proday David Onyemata DT EW Shrine John Weidenaar OT Workout If the Bengals go WR in round one, Doctson should be their target. Like all rookies, there will be a learning curve for Doctson, but once he's figured it out, he'll be a really good one. Boehm would be a nice fifth round selection. |

Yeah 77 you mentioning him being like a vacuum cleaner on balls was the key virtue that drew me to this guy. All rookies struggle. Guys with bad hands stop getting targets fast. Doctson if drafted has the opportunity to produce now.
