I did see a couple mocks where they had Booker going Bengals in rd 1.

The OL is not a highly rated group in 2025 draft. There are few OT's with true first round grades. Even the best Campbell may be better suited to be a guard. Same for Membou and Banks.

Booker seems to be the concensus OG ready to start immediately. Bengals will have a tough call. I just don't see how they can afford to go offense with 1st pick. For fun I have been doing lots of mocks, at times Warren slips to #17 and I have to force myself to trade down with hopes of getting Grant, Nolan or Green and another 2nd round.

Ratledge has been going a lot in top 45 picks so he won't be an option for us if that hold true.
