Which WRs are on your board?
#1
The Bengals are looking heavily at WRs from SMU's Rashee Rice to day 3 guys like Princeton's Andre Iosivas. I think the Bengals wanted a TE and WR in 2022 but one never fell and they didnt reach.

For the Bengals I like guys like Marvin Mims (even though he will probably have to be taken at 60), Tyler Scott, Rashee Rice, Trey Palmer, Kayshon Boutte, Parker Washington. Slot/Outside receivers with good Yards after Catch.
I have the Heart of a Lion! I also have a massive fine and a lifetime ban from the Pittsburgh Zoo...

I don't think we'll sign Tee long-term, so I'm more about the big dudes.

Quenten Johnson- RD1

Cedric Tillman- RD2

Jonathan Mingo- RD3

2nd/3rd round
Tyler Scott - former RB and track star adds dynamic speed and the ability to win on all 3 levels. 
Jonathan Mingo - strong, big bodied guy who run well enough and should be able to see snaps in the slot and out wide.
Rashee Rice - he's not really great at anything, but he's pretty good at just about everything.

3rd/4th round
AT Perry - tall, long armed vertical threat with a lot of upside but also a lot of big drops.
Jayden Reed - tough, experienced, productive wideout who can also help the return game immediately.
Kayshon Boutte - supposed to be the next stud WR at LSU but had struggles with injury / inconsistent play, but the talent is there.

4th/5th round
Andrei Iovisas - needs refinement to his game, but has the speed and tracks pretty well vertically. 
Dontayvion Wicks - his '21 and '22 tape looks like different players. Had real issues in his new offense this year.
Michael Wilson - a big gamble because of the injury history and times missed, but a helluva value if he could stay healthy .

5th-7th
Matt Landers - 6'4 with 4.3ish speed and insane catch radius, but he'll be 24, doesn't play ST's and had previous immaturity issues.
Jalen Moreno-Cropper - deceptively quick and good route runner with a legit 2nd gear. Only 170 lbs though and needs to get stronger.
Demario Douglas - small, interesting kid who thinks he's much bigger and plays like his hair's on fire. Has return experience.

I'd be all over Tillman in round 2 if he falls that far. I might like him better than Hyatt, to be honest. If he didn't get hurt last year he'd be first-round material. Dude is tough as nails and shows up in big games. He's not Tee physically and he wasn't super fast last year, but I think a year of recovery might get him to another level.

Put him with a QB like Burrow and watch him contribute as soon as he's needed.

Also, if you're the kind of person that thinks team culture can elevate a player with a not-so-great reputation, then maybe Boutte works out in the 3rd.

I will have to disagree with you on Higgins, I guess depending what you consider long-term, as I see them extending him with a 3 or 4 year deal.


The receivers I could see them looking at in this draft include:

Matt Landers - When I look at this kid I see some outstanding traits that you cannot teach but it is the things you can teach that seem to be lacking at this time. If they were willing to invest some time into development this kid could be a possible gem. He has flashed absolute brilliance at times. He honestly is one of my favorite receivers in this draft and could offer the highest value of any receiver in this draft given projected draft position.

Tyler Scott - He is so creative after the catch and has great quickness. He plays so fast that I honestly was expecting a much faster 40 time.

Jonathan Mingo - Very good route runner with decent speed but very physical.

Trey Palmer - Outstanding athlete who also offers high end return capabilities. Needs to refine his hands a bit and hone some technique issues but an explosive athlete. Needs to find consistency in his game rather than relying on pure athletic ability winning for him.

Andrei Iosivas - The Bengals have shown serious interest in him and he certainly has displayed some raw skills that are intriguing. Good size and speed combination for sure.

Bryce Ford-Wheaton -  could make for an interesting late round project.

Tre Tucker - Running mate of Scott and has a similar game only not as refined. Also offers return abilities runs like a RB once the ball is in his hands.

Jake Bobo - I like this kid personally and I believe he could be a real redzone threat. The way he plays reminds me a lot of Auden Tate. Could be a really good priority free agent to go after.

1) I do see Tee being extended.
2) We need explosiveness/elusiveness from the backups.
3) A Boyd replacement seems more likely to me, but with Chase's versatility, he could move to slot & anither big WR wirks as well.
4) I think we could use 2 WRs: 1 big WR with speed & 1 slot guy.

Rd 1: Slot only: JSN or Flowers. Don't like Johnston or Addison much. Too high for Hyatt.
Rd 2-3: Bigs: Tillman (2nd) or Mingo (3rd)
Rd 4-5: Slit: Reed & C. Jones
Rd 4-5: Outside: Wilson, Bryce-Wheaton
Rd 5-7: Bigs: Iosivas,, Bell, Landers

Johnston would be the perfect Tee replacement. I just think we are going to extend him and let Boyd go after this year, so...

Tyler Scott in the 3rd or 4th round seems like the perfect Boyd replacement with playmaking ability.

Jonathan Mingo or Xavier Hutchinson on Day 2.
If one of JSN, Johnston, or Addison falls to 28 and there isn't a guy there at a better position of need, I'd be tempted to go one of them.
Some Day 3 guys I like:
Antoine Green - deep threat
Jake Bobo - bigger, steady, reliable in the slot
Nikko Remigio - smaller slot who is a PR and KR specialist
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Patience has paid off!

I like Tyler Scott from the Bearcats.
Outside of Chase the WR room does not a mercurial
Burner. Taylor and Irwin are possession guys
Strictly. Stanley Morgan has had 3 years
To show he can outrun DBs and he hasn't.
When Chase was out for 4 games the offense
Was really lacking that YAC element
Scott could line up in the 4 WR sets and really roast
The 4th CB

WR’s I’ll be keeping an eye on all throughout the draft:
JSN
Jonathan Mingo
Tyler Scott
Jayden Reed
Puka Nucua
Jalen Moreno Cropper
Josh Vann
Jake Bobo
Joseph Ngata

I could see the Bengals selecting an Outside or Slot Receiver depending on where they plan to play Chase after Boyd leaves.

I think Rice, Scott, Wilson, or Landers. One will be a Bengal.
