Beck Bristow Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I could see them falling in love with Herbert at the senior bowl. Lions drafting Anthony Gordon at some point seems perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burrow is the one you marry, but years down the road, Herbert is the one that tempts you, and afterwards, you wonder why you ever even thought about it.

TheVillain112 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Another mock draft Monday, this time 7 rounds. Burrow, plus potential starters at RT (Becton) and LG (Muti). Speed on defense with Winfield and Barry. Also, I'd like to add McDonald as a backup QB. My thinking is if your starter goes down, it's good to have an athletic QB who has enough arm to make defenses defend the entire field. I'd like to see the Bengals take Cole McDonald on Day 3 and work on developing him along with Dolegala... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it, but it means we have to get at least one starting LB in free agency not names Vigil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You stole Mims in this BTW. Second rounder most years, no later than the fourth in this year's. In reality, I could see Windfield in the third and Mims in the fourth in yours, then take an IOL later on, as we have Mill;er, Hopkins, Jordan and Price already (not saying that they are all good, mind you) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth the risk IMO to solidify that OL. He is an absolute bully in the middle: I don't mind John Miller at RG (for now), but we need competition at LG. Billy Price needs to be cut/traded, I hope he proves me wrong but he hasn't shown anything thus far to keep a roster spot. Agreed, that I don't see Mims dropping that far but there's a lot of quality WRs in this draft... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if he was off the board I most likely go to another position and let Fred Johnson compete with Hart for RT. But with Becton there on the board, I couldn't pass up that kind of talent. If we want to have a top OL, guys like Michael Jordan, Fred Johnson, and Bobby Hart are ideally backups that can fill in. I was impressed with both Johnson and Jordan the last couple of games but we faced some weak talent. I'd rather not rely on hope that they can do that against elite talent...

Those are potentially great options to turn to in case of injury, or if the FA and draft don't go their way. But they shouldn't be the plan A. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for Fred Johnson to go down, and the Bengals Plan B is signing Andre Smith again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
