I'm Not So Sure #1 is a Tight End

True...kind of.
Bengals might be able to get a decent starter in Rd 3 or later, but they could get a bona fide stud if they get one in Rd 1.
If the goal is just to get someone who can be solid, sure may as well wait. It's a deep draft for just solid TEs.
Not sure there are a whole bunch of long-term above average starters in the class though.
