WR at #31

I personally think they will have S prioritized over CB.  They have two out of three starting CB's locked up for next year, but both starting S's are UFA's.  

They are pretty well set on the DL, as well.  They need a 3 tech for depth, but I can also see them bringing back Larry O on a cheap 1 year deal once he can pass a physical.  There could be some value at Edge in one or two and you can never have enough pass rushers, but I don't think it's really a need.

They are probably in BPA mode for round 1.  I can see them wanting a S and a CB in the first 4 rounds, though.

The only way they take a safety at #31 is if they are very far apart in negotiations with Jessie Bates and only then if Daxton Hill falls. Lewis Cline will probably go mid 2nd. 

Unlike safety there is a very good chance the 4th corner will play significant snaps during the season and Defensive Line is a rotation and also possible injuries. While most of the guys they will be looking at at #31 will likely be depth to start Corner and DL have the best chance to see significant snaps year one.


Edit: I keep mentioning Perrion Winfrey as my dark horse for #31 for the Bengals. Captain Lou has been after interior pass rushers in free agency and taken a guy like Cam Sample that is a tweener. The Bengals love their Senior Bowl guys and Winfrey just screams Bengals 3T interior pass rusher in their 4man front.
