It is Mock Draft season and everyone has an opinion on who should take who and when. Predications for who the Bengals will draft are no different. We all have our own opinions and some with a little more rhyme and reason than others. Here is what a few people are saying about the Bengals pick at number 21.

Josh Norris of Rotoworld has the Bengals going offense in the first round, looking for a Clint Boling replacement and preparing for a possible departure from Andrew Whitworth or Andre Smith next season maybe?

"21. Cincinnati Bengals – (OT) T.J. Clemmings, Pitt – The Bengals are a different one to peg. Andrew Whitworth and Andre Smith are both in contract years. Clemmings has to be more patient with his set and use his inside arm bar to prevent inside moves. He has the length and power to compensate for other deficiencies."

Personally, I like the pick. I have had the opportunity to see this kid and he brings a good attitude and work ethic to the Pitt Panthers.  He could turn into a solid NFL player. I am not in the offense first camp for the upcoming draft, especially with holes in the pass rush, but I would not be shrugging my shoulders with this pick.
