If one of these guys drop

[ibengals]

If Hopkins falls to pick 37, the pick card better already be on it's way to the podium as soon as the pick rolls around. He looked incredible today in my opinion. Wicked hands. Don't care what his 40 time is, he looked damn good.

40 time
Hill- 4.36
Patterson- 4.37

Height
Hill- 6'4"
Patterson- 6'3"

Experience
Hill- Played in a run first offense and only had 49 receptions in 3 years at GT. Some questioned whether he could run NFL routes.

Patterson- Only one year of experience playing in division 1. Has been described as raw.

Projection in mocks
Hill- Late 1st round
Patterson- mid to late 1st round

Apparently I'm not the only one who sees the similarities

Hopkins would be the way to go....
He would be an awesome target for Andy.

Patterson catches with his body too much...Andy would have to hit him in the numbers every time...He'd be fantastic for the return game, but I wouldn't go first round for him.

Hopkins is very similar to AJ...he's goin after everything that's near him.

I'd have no problem taking him with our 2nd round pick.

If he is there in the 2nd.
I agree we should take him

I'm talking about Marquise Goodwin and Trevon Auston. Both unofficial times at the combine was 4.25.

Could you imagine having AJ Green, Mo Sanu and one of these two guys?

I want to see how they do catching the ball a little later and will have to look up some game film, but those times are freaking great. Goodwins second 40 was 4.29 by the way.

Tavon Austin? I would, dudes a weapon no matter how big he is.

Goodwen? No thanks early. Not near the pure ball player that Austin is.

[WhoDeyLeisure]

Austin or Hopkins would be okay. Goodwin can be had in later rounds. Let's not be Oakland.

[Bengals Fan For Life!]

Seriously....Tavon wouldn't be upgrade over Hawkins? Neah. Keep them both drop Whalen. Marvin or Sanu on the outside and Tavon in slot. *****. Tavon if available in second.

Marquis in 4th or 5th.

Not both.

This could be a reason, IDK.

Russ Lande of the National Football Post hears Tennessee WR Cordarrelle Patterson has been "very unimpressive" in team interviews at the Combine.
Lande suggests Patterson's poor interviews coupled with an up-and-down showing in Combine pass-catching drills could result in him "sliding down draft boards." As an athlete, Patterson remains a 6-foot-2, 216-pound freak. He ran a 4.42 official forty with a 37-inch vertical and explosive 10-foot-8 broad jump. Feb 24 - 8:05 PM

When you watch him play he is on a different level thenthe others on the field. I guess you never know what is going on with these guys.

I will say he doesn't get out of the first or top 21

Not work a 1st round pick.

and the other guy wasn't even a day 2 pick. Running fast won't make him a top 20 pick.

LOL Tavon Austin is an upgrade over Baby Hawk easily, keep smoking that funny stuff.

[djam]

Tavon Austin is a beast. He burned a lot of future pro's and pro's in his days. No team ever really stopped him and most of them got chewed up. Whether he was WR, RB or KR, he was a homerun threat every time he touched the ball. I would love to have him. He can line up in the backfield and the slot.
