We might, we will see after Gunter gets in the weight room.

Wrs are so easy to get in FA. I get not drafting one
True.

Those could have been invaluable in adding depth.
There's still a few depth holes to be filled that I won't feel comfortable with a UDFA.
WR4 is probably the biggest.
Irwin, Morgan, and Thomas are bad on offense.
Luckily, Bengals have enough cap space to still go get a few cheap veterans, and there are quite a few solid veteran WRs available still.
I'd be a big fan of Bengals snagging up Dede Westbrook.
Dude is only 28 years old, so he should still have a few good years left.
He's been an accomplished WR2/3 with JAX in the past, and he's done 69 punt returns with 1 TD. His best year as a PR was 2018 when he averaged 14.0 YPR.
I like your thought of DeDe Ocho.

WR Depth of Trent Taylor, Trenton Irwin, Mike Thomas, & Stanly Morgan is EXCELLENT and young in my opinion. If a young buck UDFA can come unseat one of them, great.... But, honestly, that is a good enough 4,5,6,7 to me.
I disagree, when one of Chase, Tee or Boyd go down at some point I don't trust those guys to step up and play good enough.

Young, and the production is atrocious. Also to note, if chase goes down, we have ZERO speed on offense.
Trent Taylor (28) 5th round pick in 2017 - 772 career yards. 4.6 forty
Trenton Irwin (26) Undrafted in 2019 - 30 career yards.
Mike Thomas (27) 6th round pick in 2016 - 328 career yards. 4.54 forty
Stanley Morgan (25) undrafted in 2019 - 29 career yards. 4.5 forty
This. These dudes definitely aren't speedsters. Taylor is dependable hands on PR and Morgan is a damn good blocker but
that is about all they bring to the table. We can do better here.
