Kazkal Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Soooo with adding Sanu do the Bengals incorporate some wild cat? He has experience with it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Ray Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Watch that tape and then tell me if he's slow. Did he get caught from behind even once? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShulaSteakhouse Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Watch that tape and then tell me if he's slow. Did he get caught from behind even once?He won't "stretch the field," but he's like having another WR/RB. Shipley hasn't exactly "bounced back" from his injury either apparently. I am guessing they'll take another WR sooner than later also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierCat Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Sanu will be to Green what Housh was to Chad. He's a tough, physical guy -- he was originally recruited as a safety -- who isn't afraid to go over the middle and relishes the big hit. If Shipley comes back, that's even better, because we need the depth. But there's pretty much nothing not to like about Sanu, as far as I can tell. Smart, tough, hard worker, versatile, it's all there. Love the pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Bengal Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Just listened to his conference call and he mentioned that it was coach Irving that called him second time whom he had in his phone and he said "are you ready to be a Bengal for real this time" lolGlad it worked out for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cincyhokie Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Baltimore fans are PISSED that we drafted Sanu. Let's look at what has progressed thus far:Browns managed to last until the first round to start reaching and haven't stopped.We've taken 2 coveted players from the Ravens with Zeitler and Sanu. Possibly Thompson.We've watched the Steelers draft a player who tested positive at the draft (usually something the Bengals do)The Bengals have filled most of their needs drafting players with excellent value at their slots.If I had to rank the AFC North drafts so far I would have:BengalsSteelersRavensBrowns (a very distant 4th)I still covet Richardson. Sue me.Well, if we go 4-12 again we'll get our change to draft a mega-stud. AJ Green's are a once every 1-2 decade picks for teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I still love the Sanu pick VERY much.It makes taking a guy a little later that needs some work possible.Streeter, Childs, McNutt all fit that bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cincyhokie Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 If Sanu runs his pro-day time at the combine, he goes in the first round. No later than the second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Agree Hokie, I didn't see anyone mock or analyst think he was going any later than the top of the 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwillycuse Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 after watching some highlights of Sanu on youtube. i have a couple observationslots of wildcat - direct snap runs with good vision - he will be good after the catch/versatilehe sure looks fast for a slow receiver - he is definitely quicker and faster than tj. come to think of it. I don't really get a Housh type feel from Sanu.The crushing blind side block on that td run is a dirty Ward type play. i like the physicality but that's a definite penalty now in NFL. But hes not shy of contact.Not much to find wrong with Sanu for WR2. The one pick I actually got right when the time came. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one pick I actually got right when the time came.At first I thought he was comparable to TJ but after listening to people from Rutgers who are familiar, he is a terrific athlete. I think he is more like Anquan Boldin. Would be great if he and AJ could be a Fitz and Boldin type combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

princeton Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 a few years back, my son was a ball boy for the local high school's basketball team. for a couple of years, the only player on that team that talked to the ball boys was Mohamed Sanu. if he came out of the game, he'd reseat the ball boys so that he could talk to them about the game, about how they liked school, etc. It was nice to see the Local Living Legend was also the most generous and self-aware member of the team.I feel bad for my son, who's now likely to begin to root for the Team of Perpetual Disappointment. I wouldn't wish this burden on anyonecoming out of HS, I thought that Sanu was a slam-dunk safety, and I think that Schiano agreed. But-- Rutgers had an opening on offense and just couldn't get him off the field once he began to play with the offense. that I'm aware, he's not played a defensive snap since he left high school.I do recall him punting in the Rutgers spring practices as he was rehabbing from an injury. He was the best punter on team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
