HoosierCat Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Cornerback two years straight? A possibility, says Peter King: Cincinnati (21) likes Alec Ogletree and Eddie Lacy -- and a strange one for this high: Houston cornerback D.J. Hayden, who had a risky heart-valve problem in 2011 but now checks out OK. Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer has spent loads of time investigating Hayden ...

HoosierCat Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Smoke screen?I was thinking the same thing, then I read that Kirkpatrick is not going to be ready for this week's OTAs. But reportedly he'll be ready for camp! (Really, no, we pinky swear he'll be ready...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 At #21 ?? No, i'm really not interested.I don't think they go CB at some point in the draft however.I'm just thinking it will be later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 FWIW, McShay's latest mock also has the Bengals taking a corner, in this case Desmond Trufant./>http://espn.go.com/blog/afcnorth/post/_/id/68475/mcshays-mock-draft-5-0-afc-northIt makes a certain amount of sense if you think about it. Newman and Pacman will be a combined 65 years old this fall, Kirkpatrick continues to have injury issues and while I don't think Hall is going anywhere in the near future, he'll be 29 late this year. Behind them all they have is CLH, Prater and Ghee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Oh I have no doubt about it making sense, but figured they would have enough to get them through this season and address it early next year.Well, after they took a CB in either the 4th or 5th this year.Trufant ?? Yeah, I would have no real problem with him at #21, but I guess Kirkpatrick's situation would dictate.I think Trufant is going to be a better than average CB in the league.

skyline Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 And, it's always possible they pick another highly-rated CB and turn someone else into a safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 And, it's always possible they pick another highly-rated CB and turn someone else into a safety.And then there's that option.Wasn't there talk about thinking Kirkpatrick's best position may in fact be safety ??I can't recall exactly. He didn't get any of the little time he played last year at the safety position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
