6'6" 231
per NFLdraftBuzz
https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Johnny-Wilson-WR-ArizonaState
Elite "catch radius" with a formidable blend of frame and wingspan; capitalizes on mismatches, especially in red-zone situations.
"High-point" specialist with unmatched vertical prowess; his stride frequency paired with long strides translates to undeniable deep-ball threat capability.
Dynamic "RAC" (Run After Catch) asset; exhibits short-area burst and twitch, making him a nightmare for defenders in open space.
Elite athletic skills -- Made Bruce Feldman's 2023 'Freaks List' at number 28. He wrote: "At almost 6 feet 7, 239 pounds, he has 36-inch arms, 10 1/4 inch hands and a standing reach of 8-10. He also has a 35.5 inch vertical and a 10-5 broad jump. In games, he’s topped out at 21.23 MPH with a max acceleration of 5.26 m/s and has a max deceleration of -7.21 m/s."
Balances like a "bell-cow back"; his contact balance and drive consistently see him power through arm tackles and churn extra yards.
Master of the aerial game; whether stretching the field or toe-tapping on the sideline, he shows elite spatial awareness and ball skills.
"Contested-catch" maestro; his ability to adjust mid-air, combined with his frame, makes him the go-to target on 50/50 balls.
Deceptive and agile at stem breaks; uses his overwhelming length to shed press coverage and create windows of separation.
Relentless in the blocking game; harnesses his physical gifts with an understanding of leverage, often pancaking DBs to spring big plays.
Well, that is a pretty remarkable writeup. Why is he still here in the 5th?
this TE All better be a beast because we passed on Jaylen W
Christian Jones still there can he play G?

Some teams like him more as a TE.
Josh Newton CB TCU I know nothing about him lol.

Newton makes sense. We needed a CB for depth.

Whatever does his research
Eh. Probably won’t make the team.
I don't think the Bengals had any intention of drafting a RB. The RB room is Moss and Brown. RB3 will be a current player or a UDFA.

I've seen Newton graded as high as the 3rd

The RB class didn't really fall their way but there's plenty of later round guys and the Bengals still have 4 picks.
Wrong ***** Newton
How many more picks must we throw at CB? Especially one unlikely to make the team.
Heads should roll but nothing will be done.
I love how they were like wow we had no quarterbacks selected since pick 12. Well yes because the league drastically overvalues quarterbacks (for good reason as they are important) but Bo Nix, Michael Penix and JJ McCarthy should have been your quarterbacks picked in that area instead of the top 12. Wouldn’t be surprised if this entire QB class was garbage. Would have liked Williams if he wasn’t such a punk.
Newton will be 24 in September and he doesnt have great speed. I dont know about this one. I would have rather signed Gilmore as a free agent to improve the secondary.
