1. Myles Garrett - Obviously won't be available but no doubt he should be about any teams #1 option on their board.
2. Mike Williams - I always tend to overrate WR's and want one early every year so most people won't agree with having him this high and that's okay with me. I just think pairing AJ, Williams, and Boyd could really take this Offense to another level.
3. Reuben Foster - Linebacker was finally exposed as a serious weakness this year. Mauluaga is basically done here while Burfict can't be counted on and Vinny Rey should be a special team and backup. Foster is a three down linebacker with Luke Kuechly instincts. Foster and Williams are by far my two most realistic options for this team and I would be ecstatic with either one.
4. Cam Robinson - Off field issues are a concern but talent wise this kid is the real deal. A starting left tackle at Alabama since he was a True Freshman. That says a lot. Ogbuehi is a bust at Tackle and while Fisher showed some flashes we still aren't sure exactly what we have in him either. Robinson would be a good pickup if we miss on Foster or Williams to fit a need with major talent.
5. Malik Hooker - I don't see this one happening just because the stupid decision to pay Shawn Williams in the offseason before seeing him play the season at Safety. However, Hooker draws well deserved comparisons to Ed Reed and having that type of talent in your secondary could be a game changer.
6. Jon Allen - Listed as a Defensive End in a 3-4 but likely would be a Defensive Tackle in our scheme. He is only 6-3 as well so that doesn't fit the bill as a DE for the Bengals. The talent is undeniable though and if he fell to #9 he would likely be the pick regardless of scheme/position fit.
7. Jamal Adams - Also a Safety so I don't see it happening but he would be a huge upgrade over Williams.
8. Derek Barnett - Doesn't really fit the size description of a Bengals DE but it is hard to argue with his production the last couple of seasons. We need another pass rusher at DE opposite of Dunlap and he may end up being BPA when we select.
9. Dalvin Cook - Most people love Fournette and he is a really good back but I just happen to prefer Cook a little more. Doesn't have the size that Fournette does but he is very explosive and dynamic out of the backfield.
