Rookie Jeremy Hill opened OTAs as the Bengals' No. 2 tailback receiving handoffs, ahead of BenJarvus Green-Ellis. New OC Hue Jackson refreshingly has no time for veteran deference. Hill obviously brings a lot more upside to the Bengals' backfield than Green-Ellis, who averaged a career-worst 3.44 YPC last season and turns 29 in July. BJGE scored seven touchdowns in 2013, which should be the "floor" for Hill so long as he wins the No. 2 back job. Giovani Bernard is ticketed for starting duties.

Jeremy could vulture a good bit of TDs from Bernard this season, that's a scary duo

Would be great if Hill went into Cincy and got some serious reps. Really hoping he stays healthy and kicks some NFL arse.

Giovani better start practicing his route running.

Hill will be a top ten RB this year when it's all said and done.

I hope Gio isn't next. That guy was spectacular for me last year in fantasy.

Hill will get the majority of carries by year two. Hell, he may outpace Benard by Week 10. Benard will be the lightening to Hill's thunder, not the other way around.

Law Firm is a pretty unspectacular back.

you don't draft a RB as high as Hill and make him number 3, he will be given the ball a bunch. He will be a good NFL back.

I don't think I'm very biased but I honestly think Hill is going to be a star in the league. I didn't feel this way about any other LSU players besides Patrick Peterson in the last few years but Hill just seems like he will be a game changer.

Jarvis Landry is another I think will have a great career but not the level that I think Hill will have.

Not that surprising. As a Bengals fan, I hope that we keep BJGE & Buckhead on the roster along with the Hill/Gio show.

We'll need all four for Jackson's offensive philosophy this fall.

Hardly a surprise. Hill should outpace every other rookie back in rushing yards.

Negative Lightening comes before thunder. And is more dangerous than thunder.

Hill is already a guy who I was going to take a flyer on during the draft. It worked for me with Morris two years ago and worked with me with Bell (although it took a while to get going) last year.
