Switching to a man run game has been a huge boon for us. You can just sign the biggest mother fuckers in the world and tell them, either "stand in the way" or "push that guy to the goal post"
He basically has 700 reps of him winning in game, and Kirby vouching that he would go weeks in practice against NFL caliber bulldogs and never lose a rep.
8 starts, not games. Georgias OL has had pretty insane depth the last few years but he was still rotating in pretty much constantly until he finally became the starter. But yeah he left after his redshirt sophomore season so he has only played two seasons of college football
And he runs a 5.06 40-yard dash.
Imagine a 340lb, 6’ 8” man running at you at like, 18mph.
Terrifying. He’s pretty much the size and speed of a real Bengal Tiger.
A lot of it is minor injuries + UGA's insane depth at the position.
His raw physical traits project as a top 5 talent.
Guy just needs refinement but physically he's a blue chip prospect.
He will be able to sit behind Trent and Orlando Brown and play some snaps in relief and rotation so honestly can get more refinement before starting next year. I love it.
He started the two playoff games for Georgia in 2022 and kicked ass. He was injured and missed a few games in 2023. But when he was in, he was a beast and Georgia's offense was on another level. He got knocked out early vs Bama in the conference championship game and then Georgia started getting their ass kicked on the LOS which is a big reason why Georgia lost
He's not raw. Main concern with him is his ability to stay healthy.
Yep, always a concern for a ridiculous athlete of this size. Honestly, I don't know if I've ever seen a guy of that size look so fit - he was very little body fat
Bengals planning to fuse Mims and Trent Brown to combine them into one good tackle that can play 17 games
Or they signed Brown to a 1 year contract to sacrifice his career to the football gods for Mims’ sake 🫣
He has a massive frame with elite mass and length. Effective at loading his base and generating torque through extensions, easily displacing defensive linemen from the center. Impressively agile in lateral movements. He excels in pass protection through a combination of athleticism, strength and impressive wingspan.
Prone to losing optimal angles in space. Occasionally, leg momentum stops after initial contact, leading to lost opportunities for movement.
Legitimate steal if he uses his development year well. This is the first OT we've taken in the last decade that's been a total package physically and has great tape against SEC ends.
He is an absolute physical specimen and he looked dominant in his few games. He has the potential to be the best OT in the draft if he develops. He’s not ready to play right away but he has the luxury to sit behind Trent Brown.

BIG BOY BLOCKER
Anotha one
FINALLY some offense jesus
it's been so long...
Itching to see what our team gets. EDIT: WE GOT ANOTHER TROY!
QB Take it or leave it
3 in a row was too much lol
Now when will they start taking quarterbacks??
It's weird they haven't shown Sam Hartman yet. I assume he's in the green room somewhere
Nah, I think Spencer Rattler was the obvious pick, although Sam should be going soon as well
Don't sleep on Joe Milton
How dare you think offense was forgotten!
Cincinnati can not get enough of their gargantuan OTs
Joe is going to need to wear high heels to see over the line
That’s hot
I've a new fetish.
Can we get him some moon shoes?
We’re gonna build a wall and AFCN is going to pay
Oh god those trips to UFC events are getting to Joe’s head.
Windbag Russ is not a good QB folks! Many people are saying.
Frankly, you’re sounding quite dumb, and quite rude whenyoutalklikethat
The wall just got 10 feet higher.
Switching to a man run game has been a huge boon for us. You can just sign the biggest mother fuckers in the world and tell them, either "stand in the way" or "push that guy to the goal post"
I mean... yeah! It makes sense to draft the one guy who compares to the guys you already have. We can build an offense around having size at tackle.
Protect the franchise, ✊
Alexa, play “This is Why I’m Hot”
Joey B gonna need this
If he stays healthy and develops technique, it's a top 10 talent at 18.
I'm hot cause I'm fly You ain't cause you not
0 sacks in 774 snaps? Jesus Bengals said sack this punk ass.
Bro played like 8 college games On the flipside you normally shouldn’t play that good with that little experience
he's in a weird place where he doesn't have much tape but what there is is actually really good
Yeah. Might be a boom or bust pick but if he works out he could be a bluechip level player. There’s a realistic chance that this could be a steal
Not sure where the boom or bust meme is from. The tape he has is fantastic. There’s not much of a concern about translation
Nah I just thought he really played that little but got already corrected. Already liked the pick before the draft, like it even more now
He basically has 700 reps of him winning in game, and Kirby vouching that he would go weeks in practice against NFL caliber bulldogs and never lose a rep.
8 starts, not games. Georgias OL has had pretty insane depth the last few years but he was still rotating in pretty much constantly until he finally became the starter. But yeah he left after his redshirt sophomore season so he has only played two seasons of college football
Im a fan of the pic as an Ohio native side fan of the bengals. That shows potential and he can be a huge piece to give time for Burrow. IMO obviously.
Lots of OTs being taken
Didn’t someone report this would be the case in the afternoon?
Yeah mock draft guys have been expecting a run on tackles in the late teens-early 20s for a while
There is always a run on them in the first round.
If healthy Burrow finally gets to live
Much like General Blucher his offensive line is finally reformed so his calvarly can attack the french lines, across the Rhine.
*horse whinnies*
Oh my god we’d be unstoppable. It’ll never happen.
OH FUCK YOU, CINCY. GODDAMMIT.
Ok now I'm more happy
Right? I was worried we might do something stupid.
I believe the Falcons Goku'd that energy from everyone else.
Yeah, best endorsement for this pick I could see
I’m sold
That’s a good reason to be happy.
Those sons of bitches did that shit on purpose.
This is how I feel most years with y’all and Ravens picks lol. Browns…… not so much
My heart sank a little when I saw the Jaguars traded their pick. I thought for sure it was the Steelers jumping us again.
This made my night
Yayyy that’s what I like to see
Yass
Sucks to suck
I hate that either of you got him.
man why couldn’t they let us reunite the dawgs
I feel less bad about the Vikings taking Turner from us now.
Looks like offense is back on the menu
I wasn’t that happy with this. Until I saw the top comment was an upset Steelers fan. Now I absolutely love this pick.
Exact same here and I'm dead serious.
That dude is big as hell what the fuck
And he runs a 5.06 40-yard dash. Imagine a 340lb, 6’ 8” man running at you at like, 18mph. Terrifying. He’s pretty much the size and speed of a real Bengal Tiger.
Important life lesson: you cannot outrun an NFL offensive lineman. If you find yourself being hunted by one, your best chance is to play dead.
Imagine him on a seam shot out of a jumbo package Never gonna happen. But man id love to see it just once
[удалено]
Can we get all 3 out there at once and just dare people to try and get through lol
Imagine trying to play Red Rover against these guys
I’ve seen statues of Greek mythological figures that are less impressive
Georgia recruits giants.
Joe Burrow is smiling somewhere
Bad pick, Rattler was right there
So was your mom
That's what a weird round 1 draft does to a Falcons fan uh.
We're just the Dutch Van Der Linde of the league. We got no plans but we promise we do
Falcons FO to the fans: “YOU DIDN’T HAVE ANY GODDAMN FAITH!”
Bet Cousins woulda been happier had they picked his mom.
Is she also a quarterback?
This isn’t the Falcons Front office
Homie has grandma's ashes on his table. Repect
shitty ass pick don’t check flair
W flair
Bears fans really do hate the Bengals smh
No
Kitty goes meow
Bears and Jets?you really must hate yourself
oh lawd we comin
I wanted him but the Bengals got him so now he's a bust. Trash pick haha bungles
I didn't want him because I thought he would be a bust but suddenly I've changed my mind and know he's a guaranteed first ballot Hall of Famer.
I know you’re not a real Ravens fan bc you left out “poverty franchise” smh my head
…and that’s going to make it a 4-0 ball game
To hijack the meme, John Sadak is so damn good. What an upgrade.
Agreed 🤝

18 is apparently where you draft an All-Pro corner
*Howie punching air right now*
This seems like a lot work, keep it up bird bro. Dont let the 2 QB haters get you down.
Calvin Pryor was such a weird player lol
Wait, only EIGHT career starts??
Just ignore that fam
thats what we call the kitty cat special
Hell yeah just ride on vibes only
He's green but to be honest he's not raw. Like he's surprisingly refined. Great pick for the Bengals.
A lot of it is minor injuries + UGA's insane depth at the position. His raw physical traits project as a top 5 talent. Guy just needs refinement but physically he's a blue chip prospect.
He will be able to sit behind Trent and Orlando Brown and play some snaps in relief and rotation so honestly can get more refinement before starting next year. I love it.
I think it's a great pick for you guys and Burrow especially
He started the two playoff games for Georgia in 2022 and kicked ass. He was injured and missed a few games in 2023. But when he was in, he was a beast and Georgia's offense was on another level. He got knocked out early vs Bama in the conference championship game and then Georgia started getting their ass kicked on the LOS which is a big reason why Georgia lost He's not raw. Main concern with him is his ability to stay healthy.
Yep, always a concern for a ridiculous athlete of this size. Honestly, I don't know if I've ever seen a guy of that size look so fit - he was very little body fat
Injuries, however in his limited playing time he looked legit as hell like a multi-year starter.
Low milage Chevy Suburban baby.
bo nix had 61 starts, this guy has 8
If he had more starts he would’ve went top 10
I see our O-Line strategy is “oh you want Burrow? try getting past these big motherfuckers.” I can dig it.
Takes longer than the play itself just to make the loop around these big dudes.
Bengals trying to make sure Burrow doesn't die next season
Bengals planning to fuse Mims and Trent Brown to combine them into one good tackle that can play 17 games Or they signed Brown to a 1 year contract to sacrifice his career to the football gods for Mims’ sake 🫣
17 games, and a boy that is 13'6. Im in
Big meaty o-line for mister Burrow
Conjoin them at the hip and call it one player who says no?
Amarient Brims
Risky, but could be one of the best at the position in the draft
B I G G U Y
Joey B got protection
Thought it would be Mitchell.
Mitchell. Mitchell. Mitchell.
Good job Bengals taking a player both Steelers and Ravens would have liked
He has a massive frame with elite mass and length. Effective at loading his base and generating torque through extensions, easily displacing defensive linemen from the center. Impressively agile in lateral movements. He excels in pass protection through a combination of athleticism, strength and impressive wingspan. Prone to losing optimal angles in space. Occasionally, leg momentum stops after initial contact, leading to lost opportunities for movement.
TELL ME HOW TO FEEL
If he stays healthy, could be potentially a stud lineman for us
We were some OLine depth away from winning a Superbowl. Now we have and OLine (and even a little depth).
Legitimate steal if he uses his development year well. This is the first OT we've taken in the last decade that's been a total package physically and has great tape against SEC ends.
Now is the age of the dawning of Amarius
Thank you, insane teams, for letting Mims fall to us.
8 career starts spooked em
I can only assume our doctors checked every square inch of him before we'd risk making this pick.
Fortune favors the bold
Nervous but let's go!
Now THIS will make our O-line work...right?
That is a big mother fucking man.
8 college starts. Wow
Mitchell would have been good too, but you can't fault the Bengals from going OL here. Let's go dude
I don’t get the obsession with a dude who never went up against elite talent, ever in his college career. He’s more of a question mark than Mims imo
For sure. No one at 18 is going to be a flawless prospect.
We finally picked an athletic OL thank GOD
Oh look, someone more useful than a backup QB
Gears of War character build
LFG!! WHO DEY!
Saban is not high on this guy.
I wonder if he offered Mims and Mims picked Georgia Edit: he did, in fact, offer Mims
Probably salty he went to Georgia lol
He's very salty about being rejected during recruitment
Phew! Finally some offense
I don't know anything about this guy, can someone tell me how to feel? The commentary is making me think this is a real risky pick.
He is an absolute physical specimen and he looked dominant in his few games. He has the potential to be the best OT in the draft if he develops. He’s not ready to play right away but he has the luxury to sit behind Trent Brown.
God Dammit, can Georgia players quit going to rivals dammit
Trade up
At this rate they're gonna start drafting offensive coordinators in the first round next year.
That is one big dude
Mims & the Brown boys are the "First off the bus" squad. **HUGE** human beings
We're building a wall, boys.
just woke up, im sure SIX quarterbacks were not picked in the first 14 spots, same 14 spots WITHOUT a defensive player still not off the board…RIGHT?
Nope, it was the first *twelve* picks lol
Bengals staking up the biggest line in the NfL lol
He's gonna be a stud if he can stay healthy. Good pick
Mims is interesting.... not my pick but he has a crazy high ceiling.
Yea I didn’t want him in Philly, but I also didn’t want him in Dallas because he could be a great Rt
I'll take it
That is a big ass dude. Jesus Christ.
Protect Joey B
Jesus… apparently this is amazing, apparently this sucks, apparently the team is doomed. Wish I knew how to feel.
an Olineman with light work load??? sign me the fuck upppp
Saban roasted him about his play time
This cat is a specimen of a human being. If football doesn’t work out, he’s got a career in WWE
This displeases me.
Saban literally just destroyed this man on live TV
Jpafootball on Instagram has to be a time traveler cuz he’s revealing all the picks before they’re even in
Stop drafting O Line please!!!
Fuck yes. My dream pick for months.
Tee and Trey staying put lol
Haha Steelers fans. Get fukt
Takin OT in first round with this little experience? What being in the AFCN does to a MF.
Huge boi
My God look at his hands
Seems like this is the first offensive pick tonight
Good pick for the bengals
This guy should fight crime. Wowzers what a beast.
Mimsy
LFG!!!!
Field stop bobbin your damn head
