Re: Draft Talk - Cuz it's never too early...
I'm going to be the one person here that's going to take the opinion that I don't want Smith (Imagine that). While I think he's a fantastic talent I look at the division we play in. It's a very hard hitting rough division and I just don't see his small frame standing up long here. Is he a talent sure, great scheme there at Alabama too, but in the AFC north I just see him being injured more then on the field in a length of a season.

Right you are. Imagine if he runs a 4.29! Def taking himBengals1 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 12, 2021 5:42 pmIf by chance they do sign two or so new starters for the O-line in Free Agency I don't see any way SoP allows Zac to tap Penile even if he falls to us.
No way they spend the #5 pick on what would essentially be a backup to start the season.
The lure of taking Smith as essentially a replacement for AJ will be too great.
Mark my words....

And which WR would that be, Boutte the freshman, or Marshall the JR?Bengals1 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 12, 2021 9:55 pmHow do you feel about the WR from LSU then....?MeatHeadbengal wrote: ↑Tue Jan 12, 2021 7:10 pmI'm going to be the one person here that's going to take the opinion that I don't want Smith (Imagine that).

He opted out this season didn't he? I'd be all for Chase at 5. I like the idea of pairing Burrow back up with a WR he knows, and Chase has a thicker frame which I think would stand up in this division better then Smith would.Bengals1 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 13, 2021 9:34 amSorry, Ja'marr Chase.MeatHeadbengal wrote: ↑Wed Jan 13, 2021 9:14 amAnd which WR would that be, Boutte the freshman, or Marshall the JR?

B1, here's a pretty good breakdown of Chase, although the guy is obviously a little biased.

Just for the record I'm not advocating for Chase. Meat was talking about WRs in the draft and I was just curious on his take on him.
Penile Swallow would be my first choice if he's there but if he's not, and there's a good chance he won't be, we need to think about our options.
