Fine by me. CB is a bigger need than OT anyway. As impossible as that seems. But this is mostly because we gave away King, and Hayward -- our best corner -- has been a step short of garbage...
It's a hot take, I know. Go ahead and give it to me.

Nice win today.
We had a game winning drive for our rookie QB, a game winning fg from our beleaguered kicker, 3 picks from a ball hawking secondary and a second half shut out against a pretty good offensive team.
Note: the three picks all happened after they benched Adderley. Moved Jenkins to his spot and he got 1 and brought in Addae and he got 1.

lol you guys who want to lose for draft position. Far more important to get a game winning drive out of the rook and win for these guys payche’s.
I mean y’all act like a guy who sat out this season is the difference between winning and losing. Like he’s the freakin messiah. What a load of crap. They have plenty of picks.
THEY ARE A COACH AWAY! Not a player. A coach.

Jeez you don't need to yell.
Good luck convincing the regurgitating "we just need a 5 man all pro impossible to ever get injured o line, why can't TT do that he straight up sucks" crowd though.
Interesting point on Adderly. I didn't notice that today, but he's been a clear liability all season long. Shame, we'd all hoped for much more there.

Remember season or two ago when everybody was on Dallas’ dick because of their OL? They are in shambles now. Ravaged by injury. Somehow NE always has a great OL with low draft picks? 🤔🤯

Not a player. A coach. I was torn between getting the W and having at least some semblance of a shot at Sewell, but that is all out the window now - and was likely never in the cards of possibility due to Cincy's likelihood of losing through the end of the season. Yes, it feels good for the players to find a way to win, but in another sense it is all the more frustrating: finding a way to win when it no longer matters after watching this team lose in every inconceivable manner (to me) when it did matter.

I get it but it’s more important to me to see these young guys get some W’s now and try to get that monkey off their backs. It’s a game of confidence and belief too. Instead of expecting to lose and finding ways to continue doing so would be good for their mindset to change. Sewell isn’t the only OL player available and I get that he’s rated high but he hasn’t played football this year and there are other guys. We have a few different needs and plenty of high picks. Get a coach. That’s my top priority

It's ok. Don't let the tank for Sewell get to you guys, nor be a priority. It's not worth it. We will land where we land on the draft board. We get 7 rounds and UDFA. We'll be fine. Hey, our team won this week. Sheesh, perk up a little.
We actually may love what happens. frozen is eyeing CB's and WR's. Where we are at can allow the reaches for QB, OT, and Edge to happen. We may get cream of the crop WR, CB, etc at our pick slot.
I MAY really blow your minds and go BPA for the first time !!!!!!!!
Its all good.
PS I am counting on TT, QB rookie contract cap space to bail our asses out here. Once you see Free Agency, you can figure on what they will focus on in the draft. Kneel. Believe.

Agreed... We could get a whole draft of Sewell type talent and still find a way to mess up somewhere else. I'm more concerned about the HC situation than the draft right now. The next HC will be really important...
