BucD+ 648 Posted April 27, 2012 Kinda worried about the marijuana thing with Kirkpatrick, but other than that...good first round for the Bengals... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllYouNeedIsLovie 377 Posted April 27, 2012 Like their picks and they traded down to grab a few more picks. Good 1st round for Cincy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted April 27, 2012 Taking Zeitler over Glenn is a bit puzzling for me... But it is what it is, Zeitler is at the very least a great run blocker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Omerta+ 1,206 Posted April 27, 2012 It was pretty solid so far. WE shall see if they are adept at talent late though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted April 29, 2012 The AFC N as a whole easily had the best draft(s) amongst the league, and the Bengals lead the way as my #1 team in the draft "power rankings". From top to bottom, the Bengals picked up play makers and got great value at pretty much all of their picks. I don't really like Herron much because of his injury concerns, although there is very little risk by investing a 6th rounder in him. Would have liked the Bengals to pass on Shaun Prater who I don't think is going to amount to much of a player and take a RB in that slot instead. Otherwise.. top to bottom... Pretty amazing. The Bengals are going to be a contender for many many years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FIDDYDEUCE 81 Posted April 30, 2012 Bengals had the best draft, easily. However, the only thing that could have made it better was if they could have taken DeCastro then Kirkpatrick. They still managed to get Sanu and Charles in the latter rounds and then signed Vontaze Burfict who could either be terrible or fucking beastly. The AFC N is looking even more competitive right now than ever before, I love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RazorStar 4,025 Posted April 30, 2012 I liked the Bengals draft because then managed to get quantity as well as quality. The thing I noticed with both the Bengals and Browns is that they prefered getting offensive lineman who could do their job well, then a bunch of jobs alright. Take Zeitler as an example, the Bengals needed a guard so they grabbed the best pure guard available, not Cordy Glenn, who might have been an alright guard or alright tackle. The Browns took Mitchell Schwartz, a pure Right Tackle over Johnathan Martin, who might have been a good tackle on either side. Very good draft by these guys.
