I did a Pre-Season 5 Round Mock last year before the start of the season and I figure I'd make it an Annual thing. Since most mocks for 2022 still have the Bengals picking top 10 I won't argue lol.
Round 1: Kyle Hamilton S, Notre Dame - This has nothing to do with Jessie Bates as I expect him to be in stripes for years. Hamilton would be the perfect combination for Bates at the other Safety spot. He's 6'4 220 can play the run like a linebacker and has the range to play single high if they decided to rotate Jessie Bates down to man up on a TE.
Round 2: Darian Kinnard OL, Kentucky - It's funny everytime I watch Kentucky Offensive Line it always looks like they are trying to drive DL into the ground and Kinnard is no exception. Huge 340+ OT that could play IOL too. The Bengals will have 3 veterans that might not be on the roster after 2022 and its always smart to continue to add to the Offensive Line.
Round 3: Perrion Winfrey DT, Oklahoma - With both of Cincy's 3T Defensive Tackles only on a 1 year deal I expect them to add one in the 2022 draft. Winfrey is a gifted athlete who has alot of technical work to do. There's a possibility he could drive up his stock in the 2021 season and be a late first early second round pick.
Round 4: James Mitchell TE, Virginia Tech - Mitchell is a receiving TE to replace CJ Uzomah. He is a smooth athlete with great hands and excellent body control. Needs work blocking like most College TEs.
Round 5: Reggie Roberson WR, SMU - Roberson is a Ja'Marr Chase lite. Explosive downfield target with excellent hands and dangerous with the ball hands. Also for a guy his size is alot more physical then you would believe. He has dealt with injuries most of his college career which is the reason he didnt come out in the 2021 Draft.
I know some will point to needing a Corner but I believe if Lou Anarumo is still the DC they will add a veteran in Free Agency.
