We are in the thick of the Super Wild Card round of the playoffs. At the time of posting this, there are two games remaining until the first 24 selecting teams are locked in (barring more trades) into their spots.
Thanks to a fun trip to Cincinnati this past weekend to watch the Bengals end 31 years of futility, I am only going to list the picks and leave the reasoning blank. When I come back on the 31st, I will be delivering a full two-round mock draft.
If you are a Bengals fan that suffered through the 90s until now this moment felt like the largest of boulders lifting off our shoulders #WhyNotUs #WhoDEY #RuleThePlayoffs #RuleTheJungle pic.twitter.com/RXpI0GTBVE
