However to the rest, I've been on the Sewell first Marshall Jr in 2 or Dyami Brown in 2 train.
I'd love to see them get Sewell in 1 the top remaining WR in 2 then Meinez in 3.
That let's you have a line of Williams, XSF/Spain, Hopkins, Reiff and Sewell.
Then, you look at the following year. Williams/Sewell as tackles, XSF/Hopkins as guards and Meinez as your center if you don't resign Spain or Reiff. It helps this year and gives you building blocks for the future.
Then you run out Higgins, Boyd, Marshall Jr or Brown with Tate and Thomas as 4 and 5 WR guys and take another guy for WR in say 5 or 6 to develop (I like Powell from Clemson, good talent needs polish and more reps can be had in 5th) and now you have the offense looking solid for a few seasons.
Bates was good last year but I'm not seeing superstar,he's best in coverage and not a good tackler. I remember him being carried like a rag doll vs cleveland.
As in them wide receivers you mention , they'd have to be on the bengals radar. They could pick someone totally different that wouldn't be that good,that's a risk you take with taking sewell.
