Mock draft update

Too soon? I took a look at a few mock drafts two weeks ago, but there have been a lot of guys who have declared one way or another the past several days. I'll run down real quick the ones I looked at last time and who they have the Bengals taking now ...

WalterFootball.Com : Vernon Gholston, DE, Ohio State. Two weeks ago it was Laurinaitis, who said he's staying at OSU.

NFL Draft Countdown: Still Sedrick Ellis, DT from USC. But they still have Laurinaitis going No. 8, so they need to update.

Draft King: Still Ellis.

Football's Future: Still Ellis.

FF Toolbox: Still Ellis.

NFL Draft Dog: Ellis. Two weeks ago they said we'd pass on Ellis to take Gholston.

Scout.Com: DE Calais Campbell from Miami (FL)

Rivals.Com: Hasn't been updated recently, but they have us taking Ellis.

So, a lot more Ellis. Makes sense to me. I think it's going to be very tough to pass up a guy who could be a dominant defensive tackle. That's a great position to have someone who can dominate.
