That’s one play, brother. And the fact it took you this long to find one tells me you aren’t actually watching the games. 

Yes, because I spent my entire 20+ hours that I wasn't posting on the board looking for one snippet of film.  Good call.

Is he my top choice?  No, but I wouldn't be mad at the pick assuming Fields doesn't fall to us.

My mentality is... QB first unless you don't have a high evaluation of him.  For me this would mean us not taking Lance, but I'll understand if the staff thinks differently (same with Fields, who I do think is worth it in the 1st).

After that, you have OT and DBs.  Sewell and Slater are the top 2 options at OT, obviously.  Surtain would be a good pick too.

Then there is receiver.  I'd be cool with any of the receivers.  I know some think it would be a waste given other needs on the roster, but this receiver class is THAT good to the point where, you know, just getting a HOF-level talent is too much to pass up on.  Chase, Smith, Waddle, and Pitts are big time, freak talents.  I'd probably put Waddle last, and he's still a beast.  

Also I get the concerns about taking a TE in the 1st because I've voiced that here and elsewhere for years, but Pitts ain't like other TEs.  And not in a, oh he's just athletic way (Eric Ebron).  The man is an elite, NBA-level athlete playing a receiver position in the NFL.  He's legit.  And he would literally change the complexion of this offense before our eyes, even with Teddy.  So I don't think you can ever call someone like that a bad pick regardless of perceived "positional value."

So my personal rankings, as of now assuming we stay at #8:

1. Justin Fields / Mac Jones / Trey Lance (Jones and Lance, I'll trust Rhule and Fitterer's evaluation, but Fields is the only guy I would be in full support of us taking)

2. Slater or Sewell

3. Farley or Surtain

4. Pitts, Smith, or Chase

    • "It’s a tricky spot for Cincinnati to be in—finding a team to give up a premium pick and $30 million (or more) per year for a 31-year-old pass rusher isn’t easy," Breer wrote. "Hendrickson’s camp at one point told the Bengals they could bring home a first-rounder for him, but that hasn’t happened." After Cleveland Browns edge-rusher Myles Garrett signed a four-year, $160 million extension—with an NFL-record $123 million in guaranteed money for a non-quarterback—Cincinnati's negotiations will only get more difficult. Despite posting back-to-back 17.5-sack campaigns, one of the biggest hurdles for Hendrickson will be his age, as he’s set to turn 31 next season.
    • "The asking price for Trey Hendrickson was also very high," Wolfe said on Wednesday. "The Bengals are asking for a first-round pick and more I was told and teams are waiting that out and hoping that that market drops a little bit when the Bengals come down and maybe they can get that top pass-rusher." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25170132-trey-hendrickson-trade-rumors-bengals-seek-1st-round-nfl-draft-pick-more-deal
    • I mean, whoever the scout is in charge of knowing the Gamecocks.....clearly gets listened too.   Gotta give him credit for that.
