TE is low on my list of needs and I view DT, CB and LB as bigger needs. Then throw in the fact that if Kenyon Green or Zion are sitting there at 31 they might be too good to pass up. So I think that pushes other needs like TE, S, DE and a 4th WR a little later in the draft.

I came across Austin and he's projected as a UDFA but he looks good enough to spend a 7th RD pick on to me. I also know that there seems to be safeties and wide receivers that could be available on day 3 that could develop into starters.

So I was curious what late RD safety, WR or TE's people would like to see the Bengals draft.

I could see Allen being a solid TE3 or maybe one day a TE2 on a team. I don't see him ever becoming a future starter though.
Too ploddy.
I think at one point in his college career, he was playing at a much lighter weight?
I've seen some game footage where he looks a lot thinner than 250-260 lbs where he's at now.
