I don't see any way they don't draft a WR, but it looks like LaFell will have a more prominent role in '16 than some people thought.

It's good to hear that the Bengals think LaFell can play slot and outside, as many people here seem to think LaFell is useless on the outside for whatever reason. As for the rest, it's good to hear that the coaches still like Dawson. I'll join others in saying I'd be disappointed if RB is our first round pick.

He's averaged a full yard more per catch than Marvin Jones, with a career high of 17.0 ypc in 2011 compared to Jones' 14.0 career high in 2013.

Admittedly haven't seen him play a ton or anything, but that should generally mean some pretty decent things. Also has the ability to take it to the house (4 TDs of 40+ yards since 2012 compared to Jones' 1).

I am a bit worried about the Tom Brady effect though. Has there been any WRs who have produced like they did for the Patriots? I'm just picturing Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Brandon Lloyd...
