"Bengals selected Coastal Carolina EDGE Jeffrey with the No. 252 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.  

Gunter (6'4, 258) is a two-time All-Sun Belt first-teamer who was invited to the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl and East-West Shrine Bowl. 2020 was arguably his best season as he finished with a career-high 6.5 sacks and six forced fumbles. His relative athletic score makes him an exciting prospect, running an elite 4.7 40 with a 35.5-inch vertical and a 2.7 20-yard split. For context, his elite RAS of 9.73 was just ahead of Kayvon Thibodeaux. As a pass rusher, he has an impressive stab-and-swipe move, and his ability to burst through the line helped him get to the quarterback at the collegiate level. His lack of strength stops him when he's cinched up, and he doesn't have the chopping skills to counter an offensive lineman's punching hands. He'll need to gain some strength if he wants to make it at the next level, but his athleticism gives him a chance to be a value pick for Cincy."

Really like this guy's size and hands. Needs to gain some strength in the weight room but he has everything else.

As shown, very athletic with great hands and moves. Crazy he fell to the 7th, our End rotation is deep and I think Cam Sample 
will fill in wherever we need him same with Zach Carter who will be our pass rushing 3-tech behind BJ Hill.

We may have upgraded our DL big time with these selections. Ossai and Hubert coming back should be gravy.

With Hendrickson, Reader, Hubbard, Ossai, BJ Hill, Zach Carter, Cam Sample, Tupou, Tyler Shelvin, Khalid Kareem, Wyatt Hubert
and Jeffrey Gunter we can stop the run and rush the passer with the best of them now.
