malachicrunch Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I guess bye bye Chris Perry? Just what I was thinking. Irons is a good player, however I didn't think backup RB was a priority for the Bengals. On the other hand, mentality for NFL teams is to have 2 quality backs and share some of the load. I think I like the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nees1212 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Not much out there worth a 2nd round pick at either spot... I was thinking the same too. This was a pick where they took who they thought was the best player available. They didn't reach. Plus, they need an every down back in case Rudi goes down. Unfortunately, Chris Perry has shown he can't stay healthy enough to fill that position. And Kenny Watson is a solid 3rd down back, and that's it.

colonel-fan Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Trying to make up for the Steven Jackson screw up.. :thumb: I saw that RB Chris Henry from Arizona went with the next pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHSDawgs1424 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Not too sure I like the pick. They already have Perry and Rudi. IMO They will start using Perry more in a slot now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I would've liked to see them go defense, but I liked the Leon Hall pick, so what do I know.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98NCCalum Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Not too sure I like the pick. They already have Perry and Rudi. IMO They will start using Perry more in a slot now.So, you really think they keep all three? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98NCCalum Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I would've liked to see them go defense, but I liked the Leon Hall pick, so what do I know....Why reach for a D guy who won't fill a need. Perry can not stay healthy and Irons, is REAL good and fills a need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't predict injuries, and they weren't looking for a #1 back with the Perry pick, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Why reach for a D guy who won't fill a need. Perry can not stay healthy and Irons, is REAL good and fills a need. No reason to reach at all. At that point I didn't know much about the guys that were still available on the defensive side, but with all the problems they had on that side, you have to figure there was someone out there that would be able to help in some way. I like the Irons pick, but I just wish they would've been able to get some more help defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHSDawgs1424 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Something to think about...last time we drafted an Auburn Rb by the name of Rudi Johnson, he became the starting RB once giving a shot. Irons will be a nice pick up, I'm, just not sure where he'll fit in and what role he'll have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
