What do you expect B1, every 3rd, 4th and 5th round pick to be perfect and play for a team for 10 years? You have to be a realist too, we only had 1 first round pick and that's Burrow, we only had 1 second round pick and that's Higgins. It's fair to be optimistic on guys like these and we are allowed too, we don't need a negative nancy to tell us we're all idiots for hoping, reality will hit us soon enough. There is a chance these guys could be good, you don't know if they will or not. We needed depth at LB we got depth at LB, moving on now.Bengals1 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 1:25 pmRemember Nick Vigil....?stripesincarolina wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 1:13 pmWhat do you not get about being excited because the consensus is we got the "best of the rest", or supported a need with a solid player?

Remember Andrew Billings...?
Vigil was another small school wonder who we took in the 3rd round because he fit a need and nobody better was available. Where's your buddy Nick now?
I distinctly remember asking why Billings was still sitting there in the 4th round and someone like Mag or Meathead replied, "He has a bad rep for being a one dimensional space eater who can't rush the passer."
Well guess what Pilgrim, he turned out to be a one dimensional gap filler who couldn't rush the passer. Where's Billings now? Hint: he's not with the team that drafted him in the 4th.
So yeah, keep jerk'n yer gerkins over these mid round longshots if you want. I'll take a much sounder wait and see approach.
Wait for it.....
Wait for it....
There it is....!![]()

Re: Rounds 4-7 Thread
Is this sarcasm or have you really watched him play. I know a little about him but not alot. I know he was highly ranked coming outta HS and he's a huge ass guy.
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.
Re: Rounds 4-7 Thread
It's sarcasm Joe. Jmble and I are just poking at each other over another nobody pick that probably won't even be on the team next season....Joe Bananas wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 2:24 pmIs this sarcasm or have you really watched him play.
