In his first NFL start, he held James Harrison sack-less.

    But with Stacy Andrews hurt & possibly leaving via FA, they may be better off moving Collins to the right side and drafting a stud LT.

    OG-OT Andrew Whitworth joined the Bengals' coaching staff last week at the Senior Bowl. I wouldn't be surprised if he was hanging out with Michael Oher in the evenings.

    I think the Bengals could end up going OT. And if they want to bolster their pass rush, they may be better off going with Raji & hoping that bolsters their rush by allowing Pat Sims to be a situational interior rusher (he had 12 sacks his junior season at Auburn) and freeing up '08 big money FA Antwan Odom to rush off the edge.

    Everette Brown very well could be an elite rusher, but I have a hard time seeing him convert to 3-4 OLB. Maybe position drills at the Combine will convince me otherwise.

    How the Bengals don't draft a LT is beyond me....Palmer will be a dead man if they do not!

    I've heard he dropped into zone coverage well...

    Good point. My concern is more about his read & react skills. I've seen him get out of position and lose contain while playing DE. His style seems to be get in the backfield/get after the passer; I'm not sure that translates well to converting to 3-4 OLB.

But I guess the question is whether Avery's a true #1 receiver. Besides, they don't really have anyone at WR other than Avery.

    I'm sure Spagnuolo would like a pass-rusher, but there isn't one worthy of the second pick. OT is a big need, but they may wait until Round Two & hope to get another year out of Orlando Pace at LT.

    Rumor is the Seahawks are interested in signing T.J. Houshmandzadeh. If they do, you can scratch Michael Crabtree off their list.

    But that's okay, given that he may not be available at 4. According to one NFC scout, there are people within the Rams' front office pushing for them to take Crabtree at 2.

    If Torry Holt is released this offseason, drafting Crabtree would make a lot of sense.

    Not really, since they just signed Donnie Avery last year.

You have Steuber putting him at #1, but others have him falling to the Jets at 17.

    Not sure he'll offer trade-down value for us.

    If Stafford, Sanchez or Crabtree are still available when we pick, it could be our best opportunity to trade down. San Fran could get cold feet waiting at #10 for QB to drop to them. Minn and Tampa Bay may look to move up in front of them.

    This could be a good year to trade down to recoup other picks.

    I agree. One of the qbs could be a target, one of the OTs could be a target for some team needing one of those.....all but Smith are likely to be on the board.
