Gayer is a LB 6'0 259lbs.. no.#54

Ya some talk about him on bengals board...he looks like he could be stud and great LB if we move too 3-4 but if we don't don't see much of a future for him here.

I was really impressed with the interview of Peko, seems to be a quality player and person. I also thought he looked good in the drills too taking something of a leadership position.

I was quite impressed with a few guys out there especially nicholson and for a QB that hasent played WR for a lot of years Reggie looked nice burning that tryout corner good things could be ahead !!

I mean really, when Wilkerson was interviewed he made the comment about how big Whitworth was, but holy dog sh*t, that dude is just a mammoth-sized guy !!!

I've loved the Whitworth pick from the start, and rewatching the combine coverage only strengthened that first impression. For a man to be that big with almost no belly whatsoever, well...it strikes me as a perfect pick to make when you play in the same division as the Steelers...as it's said that Whitworth's mean streak is broader than his back.

Who-Dey!

Yeah... the only real downside is not from a Bengal perspective, but from a Whitworth perspective. On nearly any other team, he would be able to make an immediate impact... but on the Bengals he's going to have to wait.

I think we'll see all of the top draft picks sooner than we've been led to believe.

Joseph - I expect the Bengals to attempt whatever is possible to keep Tory James from wearing down later in the season, as I believe he's done two years in a row. Joseph may be too raw to play extensively, and I'm sure the Bengals have already started tweaking his technique. But a CB with 4.3 speed can handle man coverage right out of the box, and I imagine the Bengals will want to bloody Joseph fairly quickly by playing him in situations where his chances of success are higher than average.

Whitworth - He could very quickly play himself into a role where he's the first backup lineman off the bench at several positions, and a role as a pure blocking "Move TE" in 2 TE sets shouldn't be ruled out, as the Bengals are going to lean heavily on a power running game if Palmer can't go.

Rucker - Probably won't see much action early, but he's better than anyone here wants to give him credit for. In addition, he comes from a college that featured a pro defensive scheme, Tampa's Cover-2. And I'm talking about the entire defensive playbook, not just a drib or a drab.
