The Cincinnati Bengals had a lot of needs heading into the draft, particularly on defense.

They addressed one of those needs by selecting linebacker Keith Rivers in the first round. I love this pick.

They took a chance on wide receiver Andre Caldwell, who is probably going to be the latest wideout from Florida to become a bust in the NFL.

The Bengals continue to confuse me, as they say drafted two guys with character issues in the later rounds even though these are the exact players they are trying to avoid.
