Open Thread: I think it's the 7th round... and beyond!

PrintThe draft is almost over. Myron Rolle is still on the board. He speaks very well. He's a good person. I hope he somehow falls to the Bengals, but that's probably a pretty big pipe dream. The Bengals have picked OL Otis Hudson in the fifth round, a kid that Paul Alexander seems pretty high on in terms of potential and athleticism. In round 6, the Bengals made their way back into fans' good graces, kind of, by drafting a high-talent possession receiver in Dezmon Briscoe from Kansas. Driscoe was projected as a 4-5th round pick.
The competition for what figures to be 5-6 wide receiver spots on the Bengals' roster this summer should be pretty fun to watch... oh and be sure to check out the Dezmon Briscoe videos.
@ctrent: YouTube Dezmon Briscoe and you'll see why the #Bengals took him in the 6th. Google him and you'll see why he was there.
Who will the Bengals go for in round 7? Who will be this year's Fanene or Ndukwe? Let's hope it's Myrone Rolle. Or maybe LeGarrette Blount or Tony Pike!

with respect to the C Trent quote
he could have said the exact same thing about last year’s 6th round pick; Scott turned out pretty well for us.
If Myron Rolle falls to us AGAIN they NEED to take him

not a bad idea
no one currently on the roster is very good from long distance.

Two of our draft picks are considered to be in the top ten most explosive according to these guys
WR Desmond Briscoe, Kansas
Does Briscoe really belong on this list? Ask Oklahoma. Briscoe had catches of 25, 40, 47 and 69 yards against the Sooners. He had at least three plays covering 20 yards against OU, Louisiana Tech, Nebraska and Minnesota ? all bowl teams. He also had 23 plays of at least 20 yards. And he had a 40-yard kickoff return. Briscoe’s 15.3 yards-per-catch average was the nation’s highest for players with at least 90 receptions.
TE Jermaine Gresham, Oklahoma
No tight end averaged more yards per catch (14.4) or caught more touchdowns (14) than Gresham, a freak because he’s 6 feet 6 and 260 pounds and has wide receiver speed. A physical mismatch for defensive backs, Gresham had three touchdowns on plays of at least 52 yards. He had 13 plays of more than 20 yards. The Sooners have other big-play threats, such as running back DeMarco Murray and receiver Ryan Broyles, but they don’t cause a defense the same type of headaches as Gresham. The Sooners lose two starting receivers from ’08, so Heisman-winning quarterback Sam Bradford likely will look for Gresham even more often in ’09.
Goodnight All...
I enjoyed all 3 days with great Bengal Fans,and SB was over the top all 3…Thank You Again…Primal

Rolle is a great and smart guy. He just isn't that good of a football player.
"Coincidence is God's way of staying anonymous"
Not trying to be a downer here
but I don’t understand all the Myron Rolle love. I never even heard of the guy until he showed up on TV wearing an ascot.
Which is cool and all
but doesn’t make him a good football player

Right. Being good at football makes him a good football player.
He fell because he took a year off and has an interest in neurosurgery.
Stewart is a great in the box safety
AS a loyal gamecock, I must say his cover skills lack

Briscoe will be this year's Scott
I’m calling it now. He’s going to walk into camp and turn heads.
Plus you can’t deny the parallels of the sixth round character issue pick

So does anyone think Marvin got the level of power he want's this year in the draft?
Or did Mike Brown manage to piss him off the last three days?
I think Marvin got his power

I think someone mentioned it earlier
but what about Clint Gresham, LS, TCU. He is the 75th best overall player on Mel Kipers Board for the entire draft.

I'm happy with Clark Harris

Who’s on board with the idea of drafting the best kicker in the country last year, Leigh Tiffin? If you’re content with Mike Nugent or Dave Rayner, you’ll probably miss Shayne Graham by week 6. And I absolutely despise Shayne Graham.
Yea he looked good

I think Mike Brown has Sharpie'd the lens
on the NFLN camera for the Bengals’ “war” room because he didn’t want to be filmed in his footie pajamas and tinfoil hat.

The only thing you can knock is who they didn't take
All the guys they took you gotta figure are safe-ish picks that have a chance to contribute this year.
If we draft Coleman
It will be an A

That's when we were going to take Ellis, then the saints jumped us and snagged him so we took Rivers

Gresham Seems to be a Lewis Pick
If Brown had the final say in round 1, you would think he would have had a man-crush on Dez Bryant. Perfect "Brown’ pick.
We was gonna draft Sederick Ellis instead of Keith Rivers but the Saint jumped in front of us and took Sederick one spot before us

Nicely Balanced Draft...
Some real nice values…a couple OK picks…no safety.
I WILL ABSOLUTELY TAKE IT!
Compared to the rest of the league, we might not have the resources to be a great drafting team, but considering that stupid, stupid, stupid handicap (thanks Mike Brown) drafts like this are welcome.
We are winning some playoff dames this year
