I think we can all agree that the 2011 Draft fell perfectly for the Bengals. The guy I (and many others) had rated as the #1 player on the board dropped to us at #4, and happened to fill a huge need. Then, when every talking head on Earth said we needed to give up picks to move up and secure our other huge need, we stayed put, and the guy we wanted all along fell into our lap.
So, I was thinking, what would the ideal 2012 draft look like?
I think we all are well aware of the Bengals' positional needs at this point, and have a pretty good idea of the players that could fall to us. I'll post a list of guys who might be available at each pick, and you guys construct the best 1st/2nd rounds you can. You can only pick the guys in the slot they're listed, no "I'm going to take this guy at 17, then this other guy in the 17 group will drop to 21, and I'll take him."
1st Round, 17th Pick: Trent Richardson, David DeCastro, Dre Kirkpatrick, Stephon Gilmore, Michael Floyd
1st Round, 21st Pick: Lamar Miller, Cordy Glenn, Janoris Jenkins, Kendall Wright, Mark Barron
2nd Round, 53rd Pick: Doug Martin, Kelechi Osemele, Jayron Hosley, Alfonzo Dennard, Marvin McNutt, Dwight Jones, Harrison Smith, Markelle Martin, Trumaine Johnson
Who you got?
