Didn't they have a young Corner and Safety they drafted? Or else signed them as young FA who developed well? -
I wanted Q at 3. Ballard was master class in that get. -

We had one pick in the top 10. Cincinnati has had…. What? How many? Five? More? They have had many more opportunities. And nobody thought Hooker was over drafted at the time. He was called the best free agent prospect since Ed Reed. It was a shock to most that he fell to 15. As for Q…. I never said we “settled”. I think Ballard was thrilled to get him. As you and I have discussed countless times, we had offers to trade back more and Ballard turned them down. The player he wanted was Q. -

IMO, we've put way to much emphasis on blocking for skill players, instead of simply rotating guys in and out for specific purposes. I know that might tip the D to certain things, but some plays it really doesn't matter. If we're 3rd and long, I don't want blockers in if we know they aren't going to block anyway. I'm not all that sure he'll be a movable piece though, given his hands have been suspect. If he were sure handed and an advanced route runner, I'd agree though. But he's not. I found that odd too (the weight comments in general). But I think you have things mixed up. He weighed in at the combine at 253 per his RAS. And I never put much stock in college measurements. So just doing the rough math, he's an inch taller than Mo, but about 15lbs lighter. So I don't think it's crazy to think he'll put on 20lbs given his current body make up. Here's a pic from his pro day. Those are some bean pole legs. Mo on the other hand, was thicker (legs) coming in, 10lbs heavier, and still needed to put on some weight. -
