1st Round: Darqueze Dennard, CB, Michigan State

[HoosierCat]

OK, so he's either Leon Hall, Darrell Revis or Deion Sanders?

Well, shoot, I guess I can live with that...

The most common comparable i've seen is actually Leon Hall.

reading his strengths I would said a mix of Leon & Jjoe seems like he has Leon's Physicalness but Jjoes Cover skills.

Right? aslong as he's not a Ratliff...

[Stripes]

I have paid absolutely no attention to anything in football since The Loss, so I have no idea who this guy is. I hope he doesn't suck.

[Kazkal]

Thing I have say surprising that not only value we got but the fact no one tried leap frogging us for him.

Since it was obvious Bengals were in the market for a cornerback and Marvin said and has shown if you want

a good cornerback you take them in the 1st round.

One more great thing about getting Dennard: we made Steelers fans cry. Over at Steelers Fever, they were salivating over DD as he fell. Then, when Shazier was called, this happened (all quotes from different posters):

NOOO THEY DID NOT JUST PICK HIM!!!!??? NOOO

Who?!?!?

FMLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

what the fuck just happened!

Fuuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!!

This orginization has lost it's mind

What the fuckkkkkk

I think im gonna go jump off a fucking bridge

Wow...

you could have got his ass with a trade down you morons......F*** F** F***

Fire Colbert.

Nothing beats the misery of Steeler fans.

"Conan, what is best in life?"

I don't see that at all. Hall is short and tends to get burnt by big fast guys, especially in college. I watched OSU put up that many yards on Hall in one game. Dennard is the best CB I watched all season last and the guy I was hoping the Bengals would target and move up to get.

Great 1st round pick.

Yeah, you're right Hall IS short. Like 5'11".

Good thing Dennard is taller...I think he's...5'11"

The comparison to Hall is in regards to size, style of play (physical with receivers at the line), and mostly their personalities. They are both no-nonsense, hard-working guys.

Dennard does not play small, Hall sometimes does. Dennard does not play from behind, Hall sometimes does. The style of play is not comparable.

[Kazkal]

I think Hall/Dennard similarity's are mainly physicalness and willing tackler,Cover wise ya they completely different love Leon but he always had play like 5-10 yards off alot of WR's it seemed like.

[wpeldios]

This was the only true option with who was left. Worked out perfectly with him falling.

I only stated what the Bengals coaching staff who scouted him said. Take it up with them...
