Bengals take UC DE Craig at 244
Sunday, April 27, 2008

The Bengals stayed home to select Angelo Craig, a defensive end from the University of Cincinnati. He is projected to be an outside linebacker in the NFL. It was the 244th overall pick of the draft and the first of two for the Bengals in the seventh round. They come back at 246 with their final selection.

He is 6 feet, 4 inches, 252 pounds. He started 11 of 13 Bearcats games in 2007 and finished with three sacks. He also played basketball at UC for part of one season.

Tho he was a DE in college, his size is clear indication he is targeted as a SOLB in the NFL

And why oh why don't we just draft a SOLB if we need a SOLB rather than trying again and again, with very little success, to convert the player's position?

This pick flat out sucked
