More draft news

[shworge]

Found this out on foxsports.com:

The Bengals want to upgrade their interior defense and force more turnovers. On their radar are Wisconsin DT Anttaj Hawthorne and Georgia SS Thomas Davis. Hawthorne is a tough run stopper who can penetrate the backfield, and Davis is physical and athletic and has great range. When the Bengals look to their offense, they would like to add an explosive receiver such as Oklahoma's Mark Clayton, who could complement Chad Johnson and give Carson Palmer another playmaker to work with. The Bengals also would like to land an eventual replacement for C Rich Braham, who turns 35 next season. LSU's Ben Wilkerson, Oklahoma's Vince Carter or North Carolina's Jason Brown would be a welcome addition.

I would love to land Thomas Davis in the first round. He and Nate Webster would bring a much more aggressive attitude to our defense. If we go receiver I would rather have Troy Williamson than Mark Clayton. 17 is too high for either receiver in my opinion though.

I too would like to see Davis but I'm a little worried that he doesn't "fit" what Marvin wants. Plus, even though it means crap, a lot of mocks I've seen have him gone by the time we pick. Right now I'm leaning towards Shazorbecause he can hit and plays coverage a little better

I'd be fine with Shazor if you want to trade back to the beginning of the 2nd round.

I'd take Shazor at the end of the 1st.

Ehhh i think there's another Madiue williams out there somewhere, in the mid 3rd round.
