  1. To be fair, there is recent precedent for a Bengals 2nd round trade-up (Cam Taylor-Britt). So perhaps it's not as out there as it feels to Bengals geezers like the lot of us. Normally I am anti-trade up, but in what I perceive to be a Super Bowl window, I'm all in. I don't care about extra picks. Go get me a high-level starter if you think he's on the board.
  2. They won’t do it, but I am pro-trade up for Newton.
  3. I'm always iffy on the "developmental" type OL picks, because I don't entirely trust the Bengals to, well, develop. But it's good that Trent Brown exists and will allow Mims to learn and grow before being thrown hopelessly into some game against Myles Garrett. The situation should be good for him.
  4. Mims indeed. I am indeed whelmed. That'll do.
  5. Bengals pick commercial break tradition!!!!!
  6. Not sure if they want Mims or Turner, but it seems like one of the two. And the other is ours.
  7. 6 QBs and 4 OTs in the first 14 picks
  8. Just don't freaking trade back. That'll make me worse than whelmed.
  9. Very likely we're going to have Murphy, Turner, Bowers, Mitchell, or Mims available.
  10. If he gets past the Colts, my nipples will be icicles.
  11. Another OT gone. Fashanu to Jets
  12. ESPN talking head: "When he gets his hands on you, it's OVER." I didn't ask for pornography.
  13. Time for the OTs to evaporate before our eyes.
  14. I would like to purchase insurance against ever hearing Roger Goodell utter the phrase "rap battle" again.
  15. I'm prepared to be thoroughly whelmed.
  16. Oh fuck off. Set all these agents on fire.
  17. The moral of the story is to play in the Super Bowl every year so it's only a 2.5 month wait. Missing the playoffs makes it significantly worse.
  18. That would be a genuine improvement. I'd rather the logo celebrate the name of the city than the arbitrary animal chosen to represent the team.
  19. The B needs to go, but I think I hate that polyhedron screaming tiger logo. It just looks bad to me.
  20. I'd arbitrarily guess the probability of each position being the first round pick: OT > DT > [TE***] > CB > WR > DE > IOL > other ***only if Bowers is there I don't consider all of those true "needs", but the Bengals have shown a willingness to draft certain position groups highly regardless of need. And I am usually fine with that.
  21. I’m glad Adomitis has worked out so far. Clark Harris had deceptively large shoes to fill. We all remember the Brad St. Louis Catastrophe of 2009.
  22. I might shamelessly steal that one.
  23. I'm not entirely sure about him anyway. He's likely to enter the league well above playing weight.
  24. I didn't even think of the possibility of replacing the B. I doubt it, but I'd love it. Bring back the pouncing tiger.
