TDBH: Warrick selection ushers in new era

The new is pushing out the old today with Paul Brown Stadium on the verge of opening in August. The Bengals’ first draft of the 21^st century is the last one held at Spinney Field on the first day of their web site. The country’s most exciting player, Florida State wide receiver Peter Warrick, graces Bengals.com as the draft’s fourth pick all but guarantees the departure of Carl Pickens, the franchise’s all-time leading receiver. When the Bengals use the third round to select Warrick’s college running mate, Florida State wide receiver Ron Dugans, Pickens’ exit is now a mere formality.
