HoosierCat Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Wow. Next 3 picks: Griffin, Ross, Nelson. Bengals got in right at the start of the DB run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlainThePain Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 The Jaguars officially made out like bandits. Picked up a 3rd and a 6th and got the player everybody thought they would take anyway. Is this the first time three safeties were taken in the first round?

skyline Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Did anyone see the Leon Hall interview before the draft? He said he loved meeting Chad when he visited Cincy. CJ tried to bring him a pair of spikes so they could do a little 1v1, but the coaches vetoed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Wow. Next 3 picks: Griffin, Ross, Nelson. Bengals got in right at the start of the DB run. One way of looking at it is they got at least the 2nd rated CB on their board... maybe the first. When you get your secondary guy just before a run on them... at least you had your pick of the litter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPW Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Well I would have rather had Nelson as our pick but some sites had Hall rated as a top 10 talent.I just think that we could have gotten a good CB in the second round.Most top CBs are taken in the 1st round. If a guy is really good, he doesn't last until the 2nd. You have a much better chance of getting a safety in round 2.Well ...At least one of these players: Marcus McCauley, Eric Wright, Josh Wilson, Jonathan Wade, Usama Young, Fred Bennett, Daymeion Hughes, Kenny Scott and maybe even Chris Houston should still be on the board in the second round.What Safeties do you think should still be there ?

I just remain amazed that Hall was on the board. No, he doesn't have the upside of some of the other possibilities...but we all know about that whole "potential" thing...and Hall IMHO is the most "plug 'n' play" CB in the draft. Pencil him in at nickel right now and in Deltha's slot by game 8 if O'Neal doesn't pull his act together.I look at Hall and see a guy who is solid overall and has the occasional Pro Bowl season in him.

Kirkendall Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 It is hard to fault the pick since he was not expected to drop to the Bengals pick at 18... but I still just do not feel confident with him.Oh well... good pick. No real complaints, just not jumping out of my seat.Sorry baby, but I love this pick. Top program, CB who can play S too, top corner on the board before the hype machine sent Revis flying...I couldn't ask for the draft to have fallen better for Cincy.One billion percent agree.

Dadraftnick Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 The Bengals have Deltha O'Neil -many time Pro Bowl CB- and Johnathan Joseph 1st round pick last year who played well last year.This sooo where is he going to play ?#3 CBThat is not what a 1st round pick is for.If you are going to do something this stupid at least trade down and pick up some extra picks for it.This move is as smart as using a 1st round pick on a back up RB that cant stay healthy enough to play a season. By the way,this is the same Leon Hall that was abused by Oh State last year.I am not saying he is not a good CB, just not worth where he was drafted for the Bengals.
