Christian Hackenberg Brutal AAF Debut Featured Cursing While Mic'ed UpChristian Hackenberg had a debut to forget in the Memp

What if the Bengals addressed just their offensive needs in the draft? What if they focused on just the defense? These two mock drafts give us an idea of what those separate plans could look like."What if the Bengals focused primarily on getting one side of the ball right with their first five picks and then shifted to the other side? Obviously Jordan Willis Jersey White , in real life they would be open to taking players on both sides of the ball at any time, but these mock drafts were run just to see how much improvement they could make by focusing their early picks on one side of the ball.The Bengals have 11 picks in the upcoming draft. The methodology is this: in one draft the Bengals spend their first five picks on offense and their last five picks on defense, and in the other draft they spend their first five picks on defense and their last five picks on defense. Obviously drafting a quarterback early would make the offense-first draft stand out (positively for some and negatively for others). To avoid this, in both drafts Bengals the middle pick (183rd overall) is used on Washington State quarterback Gardner Minshew. Minshew was selected as someone who is likely to be available and who is pretty unobjectionable overall.Without further ado, here we go.Offensive DraftRound 1 - 11th overall pick - T.J. Hockenson - Tight End - IowaThe Bengals re-signed Tyler Eifert, but his health cannot be relied on. C.J. Uzomah is a talented player, but not the same dynamic threat in the passing game. The Bengals lost their best blocking tight end Tyler Kroft in free agency. Hockenson would be the best blocker in the group from day one and would compete with Eifert as the best option in the pass game. He would be a great piece to add to this offense, improving both the run and the pass game and shoring up the tight end position long term. It would allow them to use Eifert sparingly to preserve his health.Round 2 - 42nd overall pick - Greg Little - Offensive Tackle - Ole MissLittle gets a lot of negative press, but that is largely do to his early projection as a first-round pick. Little is a bit of a project who has not even come close to reaching his potential. He is a big, strong athlete with a wide base. He gets movement in the run game and has a good initial pass set. As a second round pick Jake Fisher Jersey , he would not be pushed on the field immediately. He could be developed as an eventual replacement for Bobby Hart at right tackle and may be able to become the swing tackle in the meantime.Round 3 - 72nd overall pick - David Edwards - Offensive Tackle - Wisconsin In general, you can’t go wrong taking an offensive lineman from Wisconsin. This is the school that developed former Bengals guard Kevin Zeitler, former Browns offensive tackle Joe Thomas, and many more over the years. Edwards has excellent feet as a pass protector. Much like Little, he could afford to improve his strength overall. Edwards has the potential to develop into a very good starting offensive tackle in the NFL.Round 4 - 110th overall pick - Darius Slayton - Wide Receiver - AuburnSlayton has an excellent combination of size and speed. He makes good adjustments to the ball and has very good hands. He excels as a deep threat as well as running after the catch on short passes where he demonstrates a surprising ability to break tackles. Slayton could be the teams’ fourth wide receiver and possibly push for John Ross’ spot. Round 5 - 149th overall pick - Devin Singletary - Running Back - Florida AtlanticSingletary is a dynamic player who makes great reads and has an excellent burst. He is the type of rusher who will find a crease just when you think he is about to be tackled in the backfield and the next thing you know, he is 35 yards down field. Singletary would be an excellent compliment to Joe Mixon and Giovani Bernard. Round 6 - 183rd overall pick - Gardner Minshew - Quarterback - Washington StateComing to Washington State as a graduate transfer after 2 years starting for East Carolina, Minshew saw a huge spike in his production. In only one season with the Cougars, Minshew threw for 38 touchdowns, 4,479 yards and completed over 70% of his passes. Minshew has excellent accuracy and knows how to read a defense. He also has a sweet mustache. Round 6 - 198th overall pick - Ulysees Gilbert III - Linebacker - AkronGilbert saw a drop off in production in 2018 after totally 261 tackles in 2016 and 2017. While Gilbert can stuff the run Womens Andrew Billings Jersey , he is noted for his excellent pass defense. He is excellent at reading the quarterback and breaking on the ball in zone defense. He also has the athletic ability to matchup with running backs in man. Basically, he is everything that the Bengals linebackers weren’t in 2018.Round 6 - 210th overall pick - Deshaun Davis - Linebacker - AuburnDavis showed steady improvement in his time at Auburn and finished his career on a high note. As a senior he had 112 tackles including 15 for a loss. Davis is a tough and intelligent player who was a leader for the Auburn defense in 2018. He is a tad undersized but is a strong and physical tackler. Round 6 - 211th overall pick - Jonathan Ledbetter - Defensive End - GeorgiaLedbetter was a good edge player for the Georgia defense over the past few seasons. He can hold the edge in the run game, but has limited ability to rush the passer. Weighing in at 280 pounds, he could shift to the inside on passing downs while adding bulk to the edge on early downs.Round 6 - 213th overall pick - Wyatt Ray - Defensive End - Boston CollegeAt 6-3 255 pounds, Ray doesn’t have the size of teammate Zach Allen, but he could develop into a productive pass rusher in the NFL. Ray has a great burst off the edge and has demonstrated excellent use of pass rush moves. He played for a very good Boston College defense where he had nine sacks in 2018.Round 7 - 223rd overall pick - Jah’Shawn Johnson - Safety - Texas TechJohnson has excellent range and always seems to be around the ball. He has a great burst and very good ball skills. He can also play man to man. Johnson would add depth to the Bengals secondary.Overall Needs FilledThe offense certainly improves in this draft by adding Hockinson. With Little and Edwards, they add two excellent developmental prospects at offensive tackle. The big issue is waiting to add a linebacker. That would hurt as the Bengals desperately need to find at least one starter at the position in this draft. Defensive DraftRound 1 - 11th overall pick - Devin Bush - Linebacker - MichiganBush is a talented linebacker who played for college football’s best defensive coordinator Don Brown. Bush has great speed and defends both the run and pass effectively. The Bengals have a major need at running back that they have kicked along to the next season for years. Bush would finally give them an athletic upgrade at the position. Round 2 - 42nd overall pick - Jachai Polite - Defensive End - FloridaPolite gets a bit of a bad rap and tested poorly, but he is an absolute beast on film. He is very good against both the run and the pass. Polite has some similarities to Carl Lawson and could be an excellent addition to the Bengals pass rush. Both have a great first step and burst off of the edge.Round 3 - 72nd overall pick - Khalen Saunders - Defensive Tackle - Western Illinois Saunders is 320 pounds and can do a back flip. He has an incredible combination of size and speed. Saunders has a ton of potential to develop into an excellent defensive tackle in the NFL. His athletic ability would make him a great change up to Andrew Billings.Round 4 - 110th overall pick - Germaine Pratt - Linebacker - NC StatePratt is an incredibly underrated player. He has the size and speed to play all three linebacker positions. He has the range to run sideline to sideline from the MIKE linebacker position and is an excellent tackler. Pratt moves well in his pass drops and has the ability to cover tight ends in the pass game as well. He would be a great addition for the Bengals and should be able to push for time right away.Round 5 - 149th overall pick - Mike Edwards - Safety - KentuckyEdwards is a ball-hawk and the best defensive back on the Wildcats’s defense. He is a superb athlete with excellent change of direction and phenomenal range. With 10 career interceptions, he is the type of play-maker the Bengals need on their defense.Round 6 - 183rd overall pick - Gardner Minshew - Quarterback - Washington StateDid I mention he’s got a sweet mustache? Round 6 - 198th overall pick - Tommy Sweeney - Tight End - Boston CollegeThe Bengals may have re-signed Eifert and Uzomah, but they lost their best blocking tight end in Kroft. Sweeney can fill that void. He is a very good blocking tight end who could help open holes for Mixon in the running game. Round 6 - 210th overall pick - Anthony Johnson - Wide Receiver - BuffaloJohnson runs great routes and is very good at adjusting to the ball in the air. He has good size and enough speed to have success in the NFL. He would challenge for the 4th wide receiver slot with the Bengals. Round 6 - 211th overall pick - Ethan Greenidge - Offensive Tackle - Villanova At only 6-4 Greenidge is a bit undersized for a tackle and comes from a smaller school in Villanova. These are the negatives Womens John Miller Jersey , but there are a lot of positives on his film. He is a people mover who gets some serious push in the run game. Round 6 - 213th overall pick - Damian Prince - Offensive Guard - MarylandPrince is a big strong guy who can get movement in the run game. He is also a good athlete for a 320 pounderand effective pulling. He could compete for a position and perhaps develop into a starter with time. Round 7 - 223rd overall pick - Bruce Anderson - Running Back - North Dakota StateAnderson was very productive for the North Dakota State Bison over the last couple of seasons. He showed at the Senior Bowl that he can compete with the big boys as both a rusher and a receiver out of the backfield. Anderson could replace Mark Walton as the Bengals third-string running back.Overall Needs FilledIn this draft the Bengals got the help they need at the linebacker position adding two potential starters in Bush and Pratt. Waiting as long as they did to take an offensive tackle will hurt though, The Bengals’ lack of depth at the position is bound to catch up with them if they don’t add a tackle in the first four rounds.Which draft would you prefer the Bengals try to emulate? Wyoming’s Hancock Enjoys His Pro Bowl Experience“We knew we were going to have an opportunity to be pretty good,” Hancock said. “It was about pushing the kids to be the best they could be. That was all of our focus. We wanted to be the best football team we could be. We didn’t worry about outside distractions or our opponents, it’s up to us to be successful. Our kids were very driven and focused. The kids did a great job, my coaching staff did a great job. We were blessed to have a great year.”Hobson's Choice: Bengaldom Takes In Massive ChangeTo submit a question for the next Hobson's Choice, click here.

A potential quarterback change could be the starting point in that quest.Moeller football coach Doug Rosfeld accepts a position with the Bengals“We had the opportunity to work together pretty closely throughout the season,” Rosfeld told WCPO Jan. 11. “I think brilliant would be the right word to describe Zac Taylor. Driven, purposeful – his ability to teach the position – as a guy that played at a high level and also just understanding the booby traps and the tricks that defenses lay to catch quarterbacks. His ability to teach how to negotiate that was really unique. So from the day you meet him you see a unique football mind.”Bengals TE coach James Casey was Zac Taylor’s ‘hidden guy’“Everywhere he’s played, he’s been the coaches’ favorite player 鈥?He was my one hidden guy 鈥?That’s the one I was worried about getting out because I was (afraid) someone might steal him away.”Bengals have youngest head coach/offensive coordinator duo in NFLIt has become less unusual to see teams hire young head coaches in recent years and those teams have often paired those coaches with more experienced assistants Trey Hopkins Jersey , but the Bengals went a different way when they hired an offensive coordinator to go with Zac Taylor.Evaluating the Cincinnati Bengals TE Options Entering Free AgencyWith Tyler Eifert, Tyler Kroft, and C.J. Uzomah carrying the unrestricted free agent tag entering 2019, TE’s are a focal point for the Bengals free agency plans moving forward. With each player adding something different to the offense, the coaching staff will have to decide who’s a fit going forward under Zac Taylor and the new regime. Will they want Eifert’s playmaking skills, Uzomah’s grit, or Kroft’s consistency? Let’s take a look at who should return and why.Young coaching staff represents a needed shift for BengalsMarvin Lewis lasted 16 seasons as head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals, which was already a little too long, but a third straight non-playoff season in 2018 finally cost him his job. Zac Taylor is stepping in after serving as Los Angeles Rams quarterbacks coach, as anyone who has Sean McVay’s phone number has risen up lists of NFL head coaching candidates.Bengals news: Jemal Singleton set to join Cincinnati as new running backs coachPrior to reportedly being tabbed by the Bengals Cordy Glenn Jersey , the veteran football mind served as a running backs coach for both the Oakland Raiders and Indianapolis Colts.
