Houston CB goes in the first round to the Bengals

The #HTownTakeover hits Cincy, someone put Bearcats#1 on suicide watch.

Who would have thought he would go higher than Paxton lynch. It must kill Memphis fans to see our continued domination.

I expected Jackson go middle round... Oh, look what I found, 24 says.

Typical of this board. Come on here as a Bengals fan trying to get some more insight on Jackson......only find s*it show involving Memphis fan, Houston fan and Bearcats#1.

can't wait to see him ball on the next level. Cincinnati just picked up a Hell of a worker and I expect him to keep getting the turnovers in the NFL. Go Coogs!

Cincinnati Bengals one of my top 5 best NFL helmets, hands down.

WJIII is as good as any CB in the draft. The Steelers are livid. Be happy.

I was hoping he would last until the Boys next pick at 34. :(

Was never going to happen. The Steelers obviously wanted him, given that they took a CB with a 2-3 round grade with the pick after the Bengals. If by some off chance he got by the Steelers, the Panthers would have taken him.

William Jackson III is the real deal. He's a hard worker and his ball awareness is amazing for a defensive back. The Cincinnati Bengals just landed themselves a potentially great player.

Nah. He was going to be gone long before then.

Whats really cool is not only are we the only G5 conference with a first round selection, but we had 2 of them.

Steelers fans are absolutely pissed that they didn't get WJ3.

Its good for the league to consistently have 1st round draft picks. Also glad to see some other schools get in there. UCF had 1st round picks in back to back years before we tanked. AAC has had at least 1 first round draft pick the last 3 years now.

I'm obviously biased but I think they're #1 hands down. Just sucks their jerseys/pants don't match how badass the helmets are.

Since the AAC formed it's had 8 first round draft picks...
2016 - Houston, Memphis
2015 - UCF, UConn
2014 - UCF, Louisville x3

During the same timeframe the MWC, CUSA, MAC, and SBC have combined for 3 first round draft picks...
2016 - Louisiana Tech
2015 - none
2014 - NIU, Buffalo
