Andre Smith’s poor workout at Alabama’s Pro Day yesterday further muddied the picture for the Cincinnati Bengals’ selection at six in the upcoming NFL Draft. With Andre and Michael Oher now being deemed unworthy of a top pick (and in Andre’s case perhaps even a first-round selection), that leaves just two possibilities for the OT-hungry Bengals: Jason Smith and Eugene Monroe — and both could easily go in the top five.
Of course, if Andre does slide as badly as some are now predicting, he will easily be there when the Bengals come up again at 38, and despite the question marks he has generated I don’t think the Bengals would let him fall any further. And the one-two punch of, say, Brian Orakpo or B.J. Raji in the first followed by a ticked-off, something-to-prove Andre Smith in the second is very appealing. But at this point I still have to file that under “dreams, pipe.”
Speaking of Pro Days, C. Trent will be attending UC’s today.

I'm in the same boat. Talent-wise, he's worth the sixth...but if they take him it looks like he will need a full-time babysitter.
