Otherwise, it's Christian Wilkins for me if Bengals go DT in Round 1 because he's a very good pass rusher from the inside.
Despite what people say, "AFC North football" is just regular NFL football and I feel like the Bengals are the last team to figure that out. Steelers didn't beat us by brutally pounding the rock or anything. They beat us by strategically luring us into base defenses and then spreading us out forcing our LBs into deep coverages because they DL wasn't in a pass rushing set.
DRAFT PASS RUSHERS. Glasgow should be a good enough run stopper at NT along with Billings' upside we shouldn't have to worry about it.
If we draft another NT, it better be a true stud because Billings is still only 21. Most players coming into the NFL are going to be 21 or 22.
He's insanely young for being a 2nd year player.
