The board is thinning out, the margins for error are shrinking, and every decision carries weight. In Part Two of their full mock draft series, Anthony and Will are officially back in the general manager seat — navigating value, team needs, and long-term vision as they continue shaping the future of the Bengals franchise. With the early-round splash picks already on the books, this episode dives into the critical middle rounds — where contenders are quietly built. Do they fortify the trenches? Target developmental upside? Add depth at premium positions? Or trust their scouting instincts and stick to a strict best-player-available approach? Anthony and Will break down each selection with a front-office mindset — discussing scheme fits, roster construction, contract outlooks, and how these moves impact the AFC North race both now and in the seasons ahead. Every pick is debated. Every scenario is considered. Every move is intentional. The phones are still ringing. The pressure is still on. And the blueprint for Cincinnati’s next chapter is taking shape one calculated decision at a time.
