5. Travis Johnson, defensive tackle, Florida State

Comments: Excellent workout at Florida State Pro Day lends a great deal of credibility to the first-round status he gained after only one year as a starter for the Seminoles ... Personnel evaluators were blown away by his 4.90 clocking in the 40-yard dash, an extremely fast time for a defensive tackle ... Outstanding pass-rush skills and pursuit ability.

Interesting since so many mocks have him going to the Bengals...

Everyone and their brother has us taking Johnson at #17.

I don't buy it. Marvin is all about team and attitude. He

wants to cultivate a positive working environment with

guys that want to help the team win. No selfish, underachievers

are welcome.

I personally believe that he is going to roll with the D linemen

already on the roster. If we do drop down and go lineman, I

think Antajj (sp?) is Marvin's kind of guy. The coaches and

players loved him and he was always trying to better himself.

Travis Johnson on the other hand, was a one season wonder.

I'm sitting with Section 310 on this point. I just feel that after Marvin went out a signed Robinson from Miami, as well as the re-signing of Powell, he finished with all the moves he felt he needed to do, D-line wise.

But then again, with that BPA "wildcard" crap he does upon occasion, who the hell really knows? :wacko:

You may be right that the Bengals won't waste an early pick on a DT -- which I agree with.

I do think that ML may take a chance with a "BIG" DT later in the draft -- someone like Fields or Bryant. I think Bryant might be a good 4th round pick.
