Third Day

Overall, just really impressed with our draft.  Repeatedly taking BPA, or close to it.  For example - my personal combination of being a Buckeye homer and an Andy skeptic makes me crazy for Cardale Jones.  I desperately wanted the Bengals to draft him.  Having said that, I'm glad that instead of doing stupid crap like that, they go get actual football players.

Ever get the impression that the Bengals only scout about 150 players?  The quality of their drafts fall off dramatically after the 5th in the last several years.

There is zero job growth in the NFL.    Every year  300+ new applicants come in as cheaper labor.    In addition the Bengals have been a playoff team 6 out 7 years so playing time has been scarce for young players typically selected in the bottom half of the rounds.

They still had two former 5th rounders as top FA targets.  Iloka and Jones.     

I bet they are out performing the majority of teams.
