Stripes Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Sounds fair I suppose, though it'd diminish the Bengals' and Lions' Senior Bowl advantage in the UDFA arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 I don't think adding rounds solves any of the issues that have been brought up regarding the draft. I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 Of course Steelers want to add rounds. They’ve already spent some of their picks via trades and have very little cap maneuvering options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happen to think he can but taking him at top of fifth acknowledges the risk that he won’t be able to move outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 I like how tough of a runner he is. Smaller in size, but rocked up and thick. That's what makes him tough to bring down. 4.3 speed to boot ?? Yes, that would be a nice addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 A lot of talk recently about Isiah Wilson, OT, Georgia moving up the boards and now thought to maybe not even be there when we pick at the top of the 2nd. He was one of the players I was hoping would be there to grab if other players were off the board. We will find out in 2 weeks !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I've been able to select Wilson in TDN mock drafts consistently at the top of 3 and he's been like 12 selections down on the available list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I haven't had a single draft in the last two days where he hasn't gone in the first round. TDN currently has him rated as the 30th ranked player. Again, I would love for him to be available and have always considered him an option there due to his potential. Then again, there are a handful of players I would like to see sitting there making that selection a challenge. I'm still hoping for there to be either an OT or a LB we can pick. If both are there, OT should probably get the nod. Not because I don't want a LB, but rather the positional value placed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My approach changed, but not much. 1. Joe Burrow, QB 2. Patrick Queen, LB 3. Lucas Niang, OT 4. Chase Claypool, WR 5. Colby Parkinson, TE 6. Justin Strnad, LB 7. Trey Adams, OT Double up on the two biggest needs, while added two more offensive weapons. I would offer this up as my "ArmyBengal Mock Draft". Here's another one on TDN that fell amazingly in my opinion that I just did today... 1. Joe Burrow, QB 2. Isaiah Wilson, OT 3. Chase Claypool, WR 4. Logan Stenburg, OG 5. Devin Duvernay, WR 6. Justin Strnad, LB 7. Trey Adams, OT I look at that draft and would fall the fuck out if that were to transpire due to happiness !!! That being said, I expect the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks to go before those spots. I would prefer this version to the one above it and offer it up in the same manner !!!

Wraith Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Aside from Burrow the guys I want are Isiah Wilson and Robert Hunt. I am fine if that is our 33rd and 65th selections. BTW PFF has joined the mock draft simulator train. Pretty good, give a different perspective that The Draft Network. https://www.pff.com/news/draft-pffs-mock-draft-simulator-is-live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJJackson Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I like that trade options are available without paywall, but what is missing from the PFF draft simulator is 1. being able to see at all times who is left (so you know who you might trade for) 2. being able to click on a player and get a profile of them also, and this is far more problematic than the above: top 10 players like Justin Herbert were still available when I went to pick at 33 I'd also like the teams that have interest in trading to give ME an offer rather than vice versa. That way, rather than guessing what might work (and being rejected over and over and over again) I can mull preapproved trades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

membengal Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Here's me aggressively trading back two times in the second round to move way back in 2 (and I passed on both Murray and Queen) on the PFF mock draft tool: 1. Burrow, QB, LSU 2. Wilson, OT, GA (pick 62 overall) 3a. Brooks, LB, TT (stayed put at pick 65) 3b. Gay, LB, Miss State (pick 90 - added in a tradedown in round 2) 3c. Dotson, G, Louisiana (pick 94 - added in a tradebown in round 2) 4a. Edwards, WR, South Carolina (stayed put at pick 107) 4b. Moss, TE, LSU (pick 136 - added from tradedown in round 2) 5a. Agim, DL, aTm (stayed put at pick 147) 5b. Stowbridge, DL/edge (pick 171 - added from tradedown in round 2) 6. Hand, CB, Temple (stayed put at pick 180) 7. Mooney, WR, Tulane (stayed put at 215) Traded originally from 33 and picked up pick 40, 90 and 171 Traded from pick 40 and picked up 62, 94, and 136 It was hard to pass on Queen and Murray, but I think it worked out OK and there was so much help through rounds 3-5 that the extra picks were delightful in this mock.

membengal Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 All I can do is play the board I am dealt. Swap out Wilson for the OT of your choice at 62 - prince tega if it makes you happy - but point is accumulating picks may make a lot of sense.

Wraith Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 I have to admit I am warming up to Price Tega....or Jackson for that matter. I like Hunt because he has played RT and RG at a high level. I am also excited to see if they can swing a deal for OJ Howard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
