I think a big need for us this year will be TE so I picked 2. Also with Mixon coming into his contract year I also see us taking a RB, maybe not as high as the second but I really like Swift and couldn't pass on him.

1 - Joe Burrow, QB - LSU

33 - D'Andre Swift, RB - Georgia

65 - Prince Tega Wanogho, OT - Auburn

107 - Ben Bartch, OT - St. John

147 - Cheyenne O'Grady, TE - Arkansas

180 - Colby Parkinson, TE - Stanford

215 - Jauan Jennings, WR - Tennessee

This needs to be in the Mock Draft forum, not Jungle Noise.

As for the mock itself, unfortunately I'd be frustrated if it went like this.

I don't think a RB should be drafted until Rd 5 minimum.

I see the logic in taking Wanogho due to his traits, but he's so incredibly raw that I worry he won't pan out.

I see WR as a higher priority than TE. The Bengals gave good pay to Uzomah and also just drafted Sample with a 2nd round pick last year. Given how little TE is emphasized in the passing game, I don't think they keep more than 3 on the roster and I think any drafted TE will be sitting 3rd on the depth chart. Not worth investing two picks there right now IMO.

Last, I really would have liked to see a LB, as Bynes and Bell will not solve the Bengals' glaring need for a good starting LB. I expect (or at least hope) they select a good one on Day 2.
