TJJackson Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=5191He says that this re-signing indicates the Bengals will seek a receiving tight end in the draft. I couldn't disagree more. They should be looking for a 3 down TE, not one who specializes as a receiver or a blocker Quote
AMC Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 They may draft a TE but it may be in the 3rd round or later.They will also give Ronnie Ghent a long look this off-season and training camp IMO.They already had an underutilized pass catching TE in this offense in Schobel why draft another one in the 1st round? I don't see them changing a high-powered offense to accomodate a rookie TE. Quote
Kazkal Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 I woulden't mind ghent as our 3rd TE after we drafted one he cold also be back up full back / Hback Quote
Stripes Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 We will certainly draft a TE, because Tony Stewart is no starter. I think it could come pretty much anywhere in the draft. Gimme Pope, Lewis, Fasano, or Klop and I'm a happy camper. Quote

redsbengalsbucks Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 Hopefully this signing finally puts an end to the day one TE on draft day.History shows that Solid TE's are available in the later rounds and we need all the D help we can get in this draft.This signing will help RUDI get another Bengals rushing record.

ArmyBengal Posted April 11, 2006 Report Posted April 11, 2006 This signing changes nothing about our TE situation and how we look at the position for the draft outside of ensuring we have some depth. That being the case, I like the signing...WHODEY !!! Quote
Kazkal Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 i dont I wanted ghent activated over tony Quote
redsbengalsbucks Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 I still hope the draft is Defense on day one, TE, OL, and then BPA for the rest.A solid TE will be available in the fourth round. The defense is still the biggest need to fill. Quote
