I don't claim to be an expert and when I don't consider to be an expert i tend to look to people that are or atleast have metrics that show how they reached theyre conclusion. Production, tape, athletic testing, age and the consesus board. When the Bengals fall so far out of these with they're picks we have to ask our the Bengals smarter than all of these markers or are they ignoring them and making dumb picks. It feels like an obvious answer to me. I know there are team and we don't want to believe it but that's what is happening.
we are a good team..barring the plethora of injuries we have had the last two years ..we would have been in super bowl consideration..We did not reach for any player..I watched the tapes on Stewart..the man can play football..he's intense..Fairchild is as solid as you can get..and that linebacker in all areas..as solid as you can get..We have to get out of the mindset that we need a JOew Burrow or Chase in every years draft..
