Summary

The conversation for every team, including the Bengals, when it comes to the NFL Draft is who and what they're looking for. But what about who and what to avoid? That's just as important. Which players should the Bengals avoid in the NFL Draft? What should the Bengals NOT be looking for? Last year the Bengals took a gamble by drafting Shemar Stewart in the first round. It didn't necessarily work out. But are the Bengals still in position this year to take a "risky" prospect? Dax Hill's future suddenly doesn't look as clear as it did just this past weekend. Could that bring cornerback to the forefront with the 10th pick in the NFL Draft? Alex Frank, Jake Liscow, and Coach Art Valero discuss a recent piece written about Hill's future and what it means for the Bengals' cornerback room. Finally, Orlando Brown Jr. didn't just negotiate his own contract extension. He also did something that reveals a lot about him and the Bengals' organization. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
