ESPN "Best team fits" has the Bengals taking Washington and Achane

[*ochocincos*]

I understand the appeal for a dynamic playmaker like Achane, but I just can't see the Bengals going for a RB that small.
They have shown the past few seasons that they want to have a bigger guy than Mixon who can churn out short yardage, catch passes, and block.
I don't see Mixon as being able to take on that role.

On the other hand, Washington fits the Bengals offense to a T, especially if they want to "eat more glass" at the LOS.
I don't personally see Washington being any worse in the pass game than the likes of Hurst, who was a late 1st rounder himself back in 2018 (25th overall).
But you're also getting a fantastic blocker, which IMO is an upgrade over Hurst in that area.
