Typically I like to go OL heavy in my mocks, but with what the team did in free agency this year, the board just looked good to take what was there.  Getting Pickens and Cross will have the Bengals prepared for the eventual departure of one of the WRs and Safeties, as everyone knows a team can't afford to have top contracts at every position.

Ruckert and Jobe look to me to be long term NFL players.  A little undertargeted at OSU, Ruckert has great hands, decent athleticism, can hold the ball when taking a hard shot, and loves to block.  Jobe is the lesser known CB from Bama, his RAS and football IQ are a great pairing for a developing boundary corner with his speed and length.

Hines is a big, tough, gritty Guard who's been battle tested in the SEC and was on a National Championship team.  I'll be honest, I really don't know much about Delance and Anderson, they were just at the top of the board when their picks came up and provide competitive depth at positions of high importance on this team.
