#202 Brevyn Spann-Ford - TE - Minnesota - 6'7" 270
I believe Spann-Ford was one of the most underutilized TEs in college football. When he was used as a receiver he showed to be a very natural pass catcher and is very athletic for his size. As to be expected he is a tough tackle when the ball is in his hands and usually has not issues with out jumping DBs for contested catches. When you talk blocking Spann-Ford is like having another lineman on the field. He needs to work on some areas as a receiver but someone with his size and athletic ability is a developmental risk worth taking.
RD. 7 - 234th Selection

#194 Walter Rouse - OT - Oklahoma - 6'6" 322
Oklahoma has been churning out quality offensive linemen for a very long time. Rouse began his college football journey at Stanford so smarts should certainly not be an issue for this young man. On the field Rouse has shown good athleticism and movement to go along with natural power. In his time at Oklahoma he has shown the ability to effectively get to the second level and to make good blocks while on the move. Rouse will need to hone some technique issues such as bend and his stance when he sets against the pass rush. Pass protecting will need the most work as he appears comfortable and natural in the area of run blocking. Provides the Bengals with a legit swing tackle with the position flex to play either side of the line.

#208 Quinton Newsome - CB - Nebraska - 6'1" 185
Newsome brings good height and length to the position but could probably stand to put a couple of pounds on. Has shown to have really solid cover skills and the speed to run with deep threats. Newsome will need to improve the most in run support and work on being a more solid tackler rather than a hitter. Overall, Newsome comes with a solid upside and is a player that could be valuable as depth in the DB room or if continues to develop to be a good starting CB at the NFL level.
