What up Bengals fans and welcome to another episode of the Lockdown Bengals podcast.

I'm your host, Jake Liskgo, along with your host, James Rupin.

It is draft week, the draft about four days away coming up on Thursday night.

And being as it's that time of the year, James, it's time for mock draft Monday.

is we're going to do your full seven

round. What will the Bengals do mock draft? We're going to fit it into the first two segments of the show.

So we're going to have some short segments to start the show just for everybody listening,

just so you know what to expect. And then the third segment will go a little bit longer,

but equal time for both James's seven round mock and then mine third segment will go a little bit longer but equal time for both james's seven round

mock and then mine to follow james let's talk a little bit about methodology here because we

probably had slightly different approaches what was your approach to this and then let's jump in

to your seven round what will they do mock draft first things first i think when you're doing

a mock like this and you have all of the information that we think we have that we think is

accurate you got to trust your instincts and in what you think the bangles are going to do in each

of these rounds it feels like you and i and a lot of us now have a good idea about what

they're going to do with the fifth pick and where their vision sort of is for days one and two

of the draft. But day three is hard. And day three is going to be probably where you and I

differ the most during this. But yeah, I mean, I didn't look at one specific rankings or one specific big board, so to speak, to do this.
