Darren McFadden News
Darren McFadden Cincinnati Bengals RB?
Why would the Cincinnati Bengals select Darren Mcfadden in the 2008 NFL Draft?
Another pick spent on a running back? Well, when you can't seem to develop any sort of ground game, you have to take one. Rudi Johnson has been getting more sluggish every year, seeing his yards-per-carry average drop to 3.0 this season. Darren McFadden could provide the Bengals with the spark they need at running back to make their offensive absolutely lethal. I know they need help on defense, but it's way too early for Dan Connor or Keith Rivers. Besides, we've all seen what Adrian Peterson has accomplished in Minnesota in just half a season.
This is the shocker of the draft, and I think it WILL happen. If Cincinnati keeps up their horrendous play, they could have a very high draft pick, and I think it will be bedlam in New York if they end up drafting the greatest running back prospect since Bo Jackson. Cincinnati may need defense, but taking McFadden is the right pick for so many reasons. First, Rudi Johnson is overrated and can't stay healthy. Secondly, selecting McFadden ensures the Bengals will generate a higher time of possession. Thirdly, it is great value. I think Cincinnati should make this pick, and then go defense the rest of the draft. I just don't see a player that can help this team more than McFadden.
