2ndyearBengal Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Do you feel that we need to draft a punt returner in this years draft? I know we're overloaded on WR's, and always seem to draft one, but a dangerous PR, see Devon Hester, could change a lot of games for us. I've seen Ryne Robinson from Miami OH play quite a few times, and he's always a danger to take it to the house.... thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WretchedOne Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I was going to say Robinson. Would be a huge upgrade.Had something like 7 returns. During the E/W Shrine game the announcers conveyed and interesting tid-bit to go with that.Ryne had another 5 returns called back due to penalties.

The PatternMaster Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 We could kill two birds with one stone and draft Aaron Ross, he's a beastly returner and cover corner. I like the talent coming out of Texas this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazkal Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Isen't Revis a better returner and prospect then ross? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripes Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I've mentioned Ryne Robinson a time or two as well... he's a receiver though, so that'd hurt his chances of coming here when we already have so many punt return possibilities at receiver.

WretchedOne Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Revis' coaching staff thought he was doing to much "dancing" on punt returns....sound like anyone the Bengals currently have?I'd rather take a shot at getting Ryne.

2ndyearBengal Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I agree with you wretched... I know that we have plenty of receivers in the fold already, but how many 4th or 5th rounders can make an immediate impact, or for that matter, ever become starters on the team? To have a weapon like Robinson as a PR man would be a huge pick up in the later rounds. As a side note, I was at a Miami game 2 years ago where Robinson took 3 to the house,,,, but 2 of them were called back. He's had success against bigger schools too, not just MAC opponents.

kentjett Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 After watching some clips, Ross is a better prospect than Revis. He is faster and breaks on the ball extremely well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
