I really like this guy. He's a big fast kid that is use to running the intermediate routes you typically see in the West Coast Offense and would be a solid 3rd-4th Round pick. I've said this before and I'll say it again this is the perfect Draft the Bengals as it is stocked at the positions (CB,G,WR,DE/OLB, C) we need the most.

Marvin McNutt Career Highlights - YouTube

excerpt~

It’s no secret that the Cincinnati Bengals are entering the 2012 NFL draft looking for a receiver that can complement last year’s first-round selection, A.J. Green.

The Bengals could elect to address this need in the early rounds of the draft, but if they decide to wait until the third or fourth round, they seem to have a clear-cut target in Iowa wide receiver Marvin McNutt.

The Bengals attended Iowa’s pro day to presumably see McNutt in action, and a month later McNutt met with the Bengals privately.

McNutt is projected to be a late third- to mid-fourth-round pick this year after improving his stock, thanks to a strong scouting combine performance that saw him run a 4.48 40-yard dash. He possesses ideal NFL size to go along with his impressive speed standing at 6’3” and 216 lbs.

McNutt had a prestigious collegiate career on his way to becoming Iowa’s all-time leading receiver with 2,861 receiving yards and 28 touchdowns. He originally joined the Hawkeyes as a quarterback, but quickly made the transition to receiver and proceeded to set school records.

During his five years at Iowa, McNutt was the recipient of several team leadership awards, something that shows strong character. He was a permanent team captain for the entirety of his senior season and consistently hailed as a positive locker room presence.

On the field, McNutt has elite hands that allow him to make most catches and has the strength to create separation at the line. He isn’t the most elusive receiver in the open field, but has the ability to make opponents miss. He’s effective at tracking the ball and making good adjustments to poor throws.

McNutt fits the bill of what the Bengals are looking for in a No. 2 receiver. Green can stretch the field with his size and speed, but the team has been lacking a solid possession receiver that can run any route, including going over the middle. McNutt can do all of that while taking attention away from Green.

Green wide left and McNutt wide right, Pressley and Ellis in the backfield, Dalton drops back, looking, looking, It's a long post to McNutt, McNutt in the end zone, TOUCHDOWN.

Oh no, he's doing the Nutty Shuffle...
Come on buddy...

"he's gotta stop doing that, remember we had a wide receiver here a few years ago who...."

I would imagine you are referring to Kelly Washington who liked to do "the Squirrl".

Then people in the Greater Cincinnati area can go out to a club and "bust a McNutt" on the dance floor to be down with their bad selves.

Greaters would have to come up with a McNutt ice cream flavor, or UDF for that matter.

If you guys get McNutt in the late 3rd or 4th round you are getting the steal of the draft. Guy has hands the size of a catchers mitt, good speed, great route runner and he absolutely delivers in the clutch. Im biased of course being an Iowa fan but I think hes one of the 2 or 3 best WR's in the entire draft.

Marvin McNutt Highlights - YouTube

McNutt's highlights reel
Watch McNutts

I'll be disappointed if we don't get some McNutts now.

I honestly knew very little of McNutt....after seeing his size, his 40 time, and those highlights, I think it would be worth our while to wait until the 3rd and draft a guy like that, save some big areas of need up in the 1st and 2nd.

17th - G David DeCastro, Stanford
21st - CB Stephon Gilmore, South Carolina
2nd - RB Miller/Polk/Pead
3rd - WR Marvin McNutt, Iowa
4th - DE Jake Bequette, Arkansas
5th - S Donovan Richard, S. Carolina St.
5th - MLB Shawn Loiseau, Merrimack
5th - C Moe Petrus, Connecticut
6th - CB Ron Brooks, LSU

Ok first, Ice that was freakin' hilarious! Second, it looks like his stock is on the rise so the Bengals may have to "overdraft" him and select him in the 2nd Rd with their 53rd pick if they want to ensure they're able draft him. Considering that pick is a late 2nd it wouldn't be that much of a reach especially when you consider the talent of RB that will be available in the 3rd. Another player who I have a man crush on is Dont'a Hightower who's now ranked as the 13th best player in this draft. If the draft worked out and we were able to select these 4 players with our top picks I would seriously bust a "McNutt" in my pants.

scenario 1
17th- ILB Dont'a Hightower
21st- OG Cordy Glenn
53rd- WR Marvin Mcnutt
83rd- CB Josh Norman

scenario 2
17th- WR Michael Floyd
21st- CB Stephon Gilmore
53rd- OG Amini Silatolu
83rd- DE Trevor Guyton

scenario 3 (perfect draft)
17th CB Stephon Gilmore
21st- OG Cordy Glenn
53rd- RB Lamar Miller
83rd- WR Marvin Mcnutt

Personally, I think.....

53rd Miller
83rd McNutt
