Austin Allen TE
#4

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.

The need to draft players at those positions is higher than you think.  Under the current defensive system, Safeties are a high priority, actually higher than having top shelf CBs.  With the Bengals having a huge number invested in that position group, if they see a Safety that fits their skill set needs, I'd be prepared to see him drafted.

As far as WRs go?  We have a genuine franchise QB, along with a set of stellar WRs.  You'd better be prepared to see them all leave for huge money elsewhere at some point.  The bench stock on WRs on this team is pretty low, so don't be surprised to see WR in the 2-4th rounds.

TE?  That depends upon how much of a primary weapon they intend to make TE in the Bengals offense.  As we have seen thus far, TE is often the 3rd, or even outlet option in most passing plays.  They seem to be paying particular attention to the TE class in this year's scouting, so we'll see if there's fire where there's smoke.  If they plan on diversifying the play calling to include TE as a 1st option, all bets are off on when they might select one.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
