Now that the Bengals' season is over, it's okay to start talking about the draft. Tonight, the two best teams in college football, the LSU Tigers and the Alabama Crimson Tide, go head-to-head in the Allstate BCS National Championship and with two first-round picks in the upcoming draft, it's a safe bet that at least one of the players we watch tonight could end up in stripes in 2012.
Here's a few players in the positions that the Bengals may look to upgrade or find depth in during the upcoming draft to keep an eye on tonight.

Do you think kirkpatricks stock will drop
enough for us to get him with our 17th pick if he has an off game?

Don't think it matters with Richardson top ten or he falls

Honestly, I asked the excact same question last week in another post
I keep flip flopping. If Leon’s healthy and we are able to resign pacman then I’d go with Richardson but if not, I’d have to go with Kirkpatric and pray Richardson would be there @ 21

Go Richardson, there are more impact DBs in the last 1st/ 2nd-3rd round than a runningback like Richardson.

Plus
I want to assure that Benson never gets another carry as a Bengal. That would only further propel him away

what about Barret Jones, has he decided to stay?
joeb69 - January 9, 2012
He has can always change his mind
messjunk - January 9, 2012
Yes, he said he's staying, that could change though.

You think if Richardson has a not so stellar game
He could drop to us at 17? I know people are clamoring for a CB at the pick, but is it a possibility? Or will draft scouts not look too much into this one game?

Somebody's name is "T-Bob"?
That’s epic.
Anthony Cosenza - January 9, 2012
Draft him in the 4-5 range, just for the name lol.
DTFCPDX - January 9, 2012
We going to be playing in this game soon!
TCfromDubVee - January 9, 2012
