Kerry Coombs, the Ohio State defensive coordinator, dialed up cover two coverage all night to prevent the long bomb and stupidly gave Devonta Smith free release. I've seen Devonta play other teams and against man coverage or press coverage he's not nearly as impressive.
Devonta will go early for sure but he's too small to play in the AFC North and he's too small to block downfield.
Besides, the Bengals have far more pressing needs than wide receiver.
Hard pass from me.
Not nearly as impressive against who?? He had 118 catches, nearly 1900 yards, and 23 TD's in 13 games this season. Let's also keep in mind there were a lot of blow outs where he wasn't even on the field a good chunk of the second half of games.
If Sewell is there at No. 5 you take him. If not and Smith is, it would be hard to pass on that talent.
