It's mock Monday.

But before we get into the fun of projecting and looking at mocks from around the

doing regular head coaching things, evaluating the team and gearing up for the combine and free agency.

We obviously know he can't find a defensive coordinator that he likes that's also willing to sign with the Bengals.

And then between all this, that's making news seemingly every day, Monday to Friday, Mark Walton gets arrested over the weekend.

We don't know the details yet, but we know he was arrested for battery, which the definition of battery versus assault means that he caused some physical harm.

We think the victim was a woman.

You're hitting a civilian.

You know, you're getting into a fight.

So just starting there, he wasn't great last year in the time we saw him play.

So there's a question of, if you're Zach Taylor, are we going to create a need at running

because he was drafted last year. Joe, any thoughts? Yeah, these your moments if you do want to make a statement
