Green
Boyd
Lafell
(Most Likely) Tate

So likely there are 2 spots for the remaining WRs to earn.

guys like Alford and James Wright will make it a tough go for these Rookies and CFA's  but they do have a shot and there is always PS spots

so i dont think tate is a lock but he does have a leg up..

so Alford
Wright
Bennett
Core
Kumerow
+ CFA's
Russell  

And your looking alot of chances for Core not to make it.

Will be fighting it out for them last 2 spots...  Kumerow looked good last preseason.  Bennett was good at UGA but was hurt last year.  They like Wright but hes been hurt.  Alford stuck last year so he also probly has a leg up..

I know some people are still somewhat concerned about true depth at WR this year, but given the amount of young talent that we have to develop - I am rather excited. Between Boyd, Core, Alford, Kumerow (even FA's like Russell) - you have to think one or two of them out of the group will turn into something very solid. I'm not saying your next AJ Green, but maybe the robin to AJ's batman. I would love for the Bengals to get back in that conversation of "the best core of receivers in the NFL" - just hoping some of these young guys want it bad. This spring/summer will be an absolute blast to watch the development of these guys.

That being said:

AJ
Lafell
Boyd (slot)
Core
Alford (slot)
Kumerow

I know the coaches are high on Wright - but until I see he's 100% healthy, can't roll the dice with the amount of young talent around him.
