Daniel Jeremiah has the Bengals taking Slater with Sewell still available.  Not sure about that but I think they need to attack the OL in FA and open up the draft for BPA. (FA starts Geoff the draft, right?)

Slater is liked a lot due to his versatility. He can play several different spot on the line. Also, the tape he has from shutting down Chase Young really got people excited.

He is a good prospect, but I'd still take Sewell and Darrisaw over him with our needs. We need a LT that is going to be the anchor. I think Jonah would be better at RT, and with him getting hurt each year now, I just feel better with a back-up at RT then at the blindside of our QB.

Regardless... Sewell, Slater, or Darrisaw would all be upgrades on this line.
