I think Bellinger has potential and does fit what the Bengals look for:
- proven blocker
- high athleticism to give optimism of becoming a good receiver
Bengals might think they have the time to allow for grooming someone like Bellinger given they have Hurst and Sample this year. They could always add a stopgap next year too while a late-round TE continues to develop.
