The Bengals continue to add talent to the tight end position. We have had a chance to watch Kelce in our backyard, and feel he brings the total package. Jermaine Gresham while extremely talented has been a bit inconsistent, and Orson Charles still is developing. We feel that Kelce provides us with a big target for Dalton with sure hands. It also provides us with other options in the future if Gresham should depart. Hey Travis Kelce... Welcome to Glory Son

Cap Hit of $688,000

I love Kelce. Reminds me of a Heath Miller/Dustin Keller hybrid

what is everyones thoughts on Justin Bieber with our last pick if Carrie Underwood and company arent available? He's definitely got the hands and could be a good chain mover

No thanks to Bieber. Unless we gain more picks, it seems to me we have to take someone at Crybaby's position if not him specifically.

Love the pick for sheer value. He gives us a pure in-line tight end. I have Kelce just ahead of Eifert as my #1 overall TE and if not for character concerns I'm confident he'd be a late first round guy.

This is big because we can play Orson Charles more as an h-back, even fullback - a more versatile role that can get him on the field. We can play Gresham largely in the slot or even at SE with A.J on the outside and Sanu/Hawkins in the slot. Kelce is a pure in-line guy who is a very good blocker but in the run and pass game, soft hands and underrated speed (4.65 guy I think).

Honestly johndeere I really can't say no to Bieber. I love him, doesn't make mistakes, incredibly high football IQ, hard worker, leader who will find a niche on our roster not to mention he is elite at the most important trait for his position. Not a huge need but I feel comfortable with BPA.

People need to remember MLB isn't a huge need. On nickel we can have Ogletree and Burfict (if he develops in coverage) or Wheeler. All three of our starting backers are three down guys though Taze needs to get better in coverage, the potential is there. Worst case scenario if we need a backup ILB we move Ogletree there and start Thomas Howard. I'm comfortable with our situation at MLB. BPA all the way for me with an eye towards need/value combination.

If we ran a 3-4, I would be all over Chocolate Chip.

Since we run a 4-3, we should look at Tic Tac with our next selection or Duck Dynasty or rocky either of them 3, I'd be happy

Tic Tac would be a great pick in the 4th

Why take TicTac when there are better players available at his position? Superman or Jack Sparrow are better but they would be luxury picks. We really need to upgrade our current backups at Crybaby's position. If our new starter at the position got hurt, we'd be screwed with zero depth there.

do we want to try and trade down with our last pick?
