Resetting the weekend; draft picks and undrafted free agents

I know there's a lot of new stuff that's happened this weekend that will take some time to process -- and I'll do my best to present it easily rather than a bunch of posts detailing the acquisitions. For the time being, here's a run down of players that the Bengals selected in the draft and reportedly after the draft.

In the NFL Draft

Round	Overall	Selection
1	6	OT Andre Smith, Alabama
2	38	LB Rey Maualuga, USC
3	70	DE Michael Johnson, Georgia Tech
3	98	TE Chase Coffman, Missouri
4	106	C Jonathan Luigs, Arkansas
5	142	Punter Kevin Huber, UC
6	179	CB Morgan Trent, Michigan
6	209	RB Bernard Scott, Abilene Christian
7	215	RB Fui Vakapuna, BYU
7	249	DT Clinton McDonald, Memphis
7	252	WR Freddie Brown, Utah

After the Draft, undrafted free agents (reported by Joe Reedy)

Player	Position	School
Quan Cosby	WR	Texas
Marlon Lucky	RB	Nebraska
Billy Farris	QB	Colorado State
Ty Steinkuhler	DE	Nebraska
Colin Dow	C	Montana

H/T to "the1austin" for finding another list that included all of the above, save for quarterback Billy Farris.

Player	Position	School
Dan Skuta	DL	Grand Valley St
Chris Pressley	FB	Wisconsin
Tom Nelson	S	Illinois State
Greg Orton	TE	Purdue

That's reportedly nine undrafted free agents, 11 drafted players, giving you a total of 20 new prospects on the team.

My favorite Quan highlight...

LINK. The guy is a fearless competitor, when he catches a pass he fights for every inch. He’s just the kind of player you love to have on your team.

Free Jello and Puddin for everyone!

Except you Jeremi. Go do a couple more laps and you can have some of the Sugar free crap.

what is going on with our team i dont know about anyone else it seems to me that from the bengals first pick to the last undrafted rookie they have a plan and seem to be getting good guys who can help this team. The player the i think is the most interesting is Scott the RB. He seems to have the talent to be a good running back yes it was aganist lower comp but still those are amazing numbers even against bad comp. If he can stay out of trouble he could be a great pick up.

Even if he gets into trouble.

What’s the cost? A PR hit? Big woop. :)

Cost

The cost is wasting a pick on a guy that I guarantee you flames out. Not because he can’t perform on the field, but off field issues will crush this guy.
