He got his money this year and sat out... Don't tell me his thumb was hurt, it was a four week recovery time that he drew out to 13 weeks. Jalen Ramsey laid out the blueprint, fake a back injury until you get traded. He wanted out of Jacksonville and was "injured" pretty much until he was a Ram.

They won't get a better tackle with their pick and we clear some cap space. They also have A TON of cap space next year.

Cincy could use a guy like Tunsil, could kick Jonah Williams to RT and and build the IOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Here’s 5 guys I’d like to get if we traded down: Tyler Linderbaum - I think he’s easily a starting center for 10 years. I would also say he has the least chance of busting of any lineman in the draft. If we keep Tunsil, we’ve got Howard and we can add Linderbaum, suddenly the line is looking pretty good. Sauce Gardner - I think he’s the best CB in the draft. Dude is as lock down as they come. He would be a great addition at a position that’s been weak for years for us. I liked the job Desmond King did for us on the other side. We could roll with those two starting. Nakobe Dean - he’s got to get bigger but he will. He’s a starting linebacker from day 1. If we stay in a 4-3 or move to a 3-4 he can do either. Treylon Burks - he’s not the best WR in the draft but he’s a legit guy. Get him in the late teens or early 20s and let him be the number 2 option to cooks and he’s gonna be really good. Him, cooks and Nico form a solid WR core for us. Jalen Wydermyer - he’s probably a 2nd round option but dude can be a beast at TE. He can block, he can catch, he can do it all. He had some drops this year but the Aggies also had a QB incapable of putting touch on a football. He’s a 3 down TE which is rare anymore. we need to get much better. I am all for getting rid of 3 and picking up multiple 1st round picks however we need to. I wouldn’t be opposed to getting two of the eagles picks for number 3 and doing some work with them. if we can make multiple trades and come away with 2 1sts, 2 2nds and future 1sts, I’d be all good with this draft. with our recent lack of draft Capitol I’m all for finding 4-5 starters in this draft. We need it desperately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Well the bengals took a QB and the. A WR. Maybe we should follow suit. A big play WR would be really nice to go with Mills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can build up the running game and have a solid defense to protect him, Mills can be solid. If he has to be Burrow/Allen/Mahomes and throw 40 times a game, we're in trouble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm way out on a limb by saying this.. but I think Mills has the potential to be as good as any of those guys. I'm not sure if he WILL be, but I think he COULD be. I see a cerebral player who, in his best games, was consistently able to find the open player, and to deliver the ball in an accurate and timely fashion. I think the more he learns about defenses, and once we surround him with legitimate blue chip type threats, I really really think dude could like brbeak TD records and win Superbowls and the whole thing. Peyton Manning went 1-15 his rookie year.. all I'm saying.. Let's find out what it looks like with a functional run game, and if Nico Collins is able to emerge as the alpha type of receiver we know he can be. I think, if we surround Mills with the right pieces the sky's the limit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texansfan713 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Im curious to see how he does with more weapons and a decent offensive minded HC and/or coordinator. People forget he had limited reps at Stanford so he still developing as a passer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think, if we surround Mills with the right pieces the sky's the limit. I'll say this: When Mills was selected by the Texans, I didn't mind it because he at least had the highest ceilings out of Mond, Mills, and Trask. You know what you're getting with Mond as someone who started a ton of games in college whereas Mills is a bit of an unknown. Thankfully, he's a former 5 star recruit so his pedigree shows he has the potential to punch about his draft slot. However, I feel his ceiling is Kirk Cousins; a borderline top 10/top 15 QB. I can't see him turning into a top 5 QB like Burrow/Allen/Mahomes; that's a massive pipe dream. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was gonna be a starting level tackle, he would be by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
