History repeats itself!

Alright I changed my vote to Ezeiruaku, Mike Green won't be on our board it sounds like. I personally would take Hairston out of these options. But Ezeiruaku seems to fit what this regime prioritizes which is character and coachability. I would be a bit underwhelmed by that pick but it feels right.

They never got further than the allegation stage. But there were two - one in high school, one at Virginia. And he ended up getting suspended by Virginia over it. Not a good look, which is putting it lightly, but since there were no real charges I don't know how much you can use that against him as a prospect. Unless like Gunner said there is more that hasn't been revealed publicly.

Are you hearing other legal issues, or character concerns like work ethic and poor attitude? If it's the former I could see us overlooking it if our own background check checks out, if it's the latter he isn't an option for us. Walter Nolen apparently has character concerns too. So we're in a weird position here where maybe the best two players available are also poor character fits, and another BPA is a TE which would be a poor investment. If I was removing those three players I'd go with Hairston out of the remaining options. Amos I'd be fine with, I feel like his upside is more limited than I'd like for a 1st rounder but probably a safe pick.

There is a legitimate case that he's BPA right now. If Beane stuck to the board and picked him I imagine his next move would be trading Kincaid. That would be a real tough pill to swallow though.

If Mike Green falls this far in the real draft it's probably because of his old sexual assault allegations... He sticks out as the clear BPA to me and he fits a need. His pass rush skill set also happens to complement Rousseau perfectly. So I voted for him. But I don't know if Beane would overlook the allegations.

Mike Green Walter Nolen Donovan Ezeiruaku Luther Burden Maxwell Hairston Nic Scourton Trey Amos Those are the most likely Bills options in this scenario IMO.

This gives Jermaine Burton vibes. I wouldn't touch him in the 1st round.

After looking at the calendar, the Bengals are revising their selection. With the 17th pick they select Will Campbell, OT, LSU. The Seahawks @Logic are on the clock. This is an absolute dream scenario for Cincy. We have needs all across the roster but the biggest priority has to be protecting Burrow who has already missed basically two seasons with injuries. One lingering concern with Campbell is he may be a more natural guard at the next level. But in Cincy that's fine. We have Orlando Brown to man LT and our 2024 1st rounder Amarius Mims slated to be the RT. So Campbell can start his career in his more natural position with upside to transition to LT in the future. This is a no brainer pick getting a top 10 prospect at a position of need who happened to slide.

With the 17th pick the Cincinnati Bengals select Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona. That's right folks. The Bengals are building a dynasty on nothing but WRs. Defense? Unneccessary. Mike Brown will have to open his famously large checkbook to pay for a new scoreboard that can fit triple digits on the home side. Offensive line? Burrow's bones and ligaments will be considered optional with this cast of weapons.

Yeah makes sense to let the medical staff evaluate him if nothing else. ACL tears don't concern me too much, young players can rebound from them pretty quickly with no lingering effects other than possible mental hurdles. He apparently is a high character prospect and he has an elite length and speed combination. So he fits a lot of what this regime looks for in the 1st round. If the medicals are clean it would be a great 1st round pick IMO.

I don't think this was reported anywhere yet but I was told CB Shavon Revel will be one of our top 30 visits.

So you agree teams should not be able to cut a player before their contract runs out? Since the team signed the contract and agreed to those terms?
