You very well could be right on the draft decision, but I thought I read last year (draft time) that Taylor (and coaching staff) were controlling the draft. My oversight on Tobin. Easily forgettable person (lol). And I realize it's been a three-way "tandem" in the decision-making with Kathie, Troy, and Paul; but that Katie, as Executive VP, was carrying more "authority" as Mike was stepping away from the decision-making .....

While it isn’t Katie Blackburn by herself, she has clearly emerged as the apparent heir to the Bengals throne ahead of her brother Paul Brown. It appears that how Taylor fairs as a head coach will be the first judgement of how well Blackburn will fair as the lead decision maker.

My whole point is simply this Boss ..... I certainly understand every Bengal fan's intense hatred for Mike Brown. It's fine if they agree with what Carson says. But don't SIDE with the guy to the point/degree where he's trying to hurt your organization and hinder it from getting better, going in the right direction by telling quality players to not go there.That administrative team, led by Brown’s daughter Katie, led the charge in hiring Zac Taylor away from the Los Angeles Rams after the Super Bowl.
Go into this draft, see what they do, and give them a chance.
