@BMeek23@vancemeek@JoeGoodberry Faulk is such a hard player to like his 2024 season was really good and in 2025 his pass rush just wasn’t there, could be because of the scheme and being played out of position but we’d be talking about him being a guaranteed top ten pick if he had repeated his 2024 season.
@Thelastgordo99 And who knows—maybe improving the rest of the defense around Carter and Knight helps them take a step forward and play at a better level.
@Thelastgordo99 Exactly. Everyone expected a completely new defense, like we don’t already have guys who can play. They’ve addressed the biggest needs so far—linebacker is really the only question, but there’s still the draft and free agents left to fix that and the depth pieces we need.
@BengalsKorey Same here. They’ll most likely add the missing depth through the draft and free agents remaining, but it’s not like they need to address every position. My only concern is the risk of rolling with Carter and Knight without adding a veteran.
@BMeek23@ba5434622@EAB_740 Very good list pretty much the same for me and yeah I very much would prefer Thieneman over any CB if he’s there at 10. CB at 10 doesn’t make sense to me because they will just use that as an excuse to not keep Dax or DJ.
@BMeek23@ba5434622@EAB_740 Just curious but who are your top players that you’d like the bengals to draft if they are available at 10 based on what they need?
@AndreBengals If Rueben Bain falls to 10 you run to the podium to take him. Yes, he would 100% help fix the D-line. You can plug him in anywhere, he’s that versatile. He’s a generational talent who will make an impact from day one.
