1st round - Corey Coleman WR Baylor - This guy is extremely fast, can seperate, runs great routes,
beats Corners and Safeties deep, has great hands and will. Reminds me of Steve Smith in his prime.
Might not have the size that Treadwell or Doctson have but is the best receiver in this class IMO.

2nd round - Bronson Kaufusi DE BYU - Changed from Deion Jones to this guy after looking at this
more closely. We will need to add another pass rusher and this guy fits the mold. Big, strong, fast athlete
that should make up for the failures of Hunt and Clarke. Kaufusi should be flying up the boards the closer
we get to the Draft.

3rd round - Hassan Ridgeway DT Texas - Cannot move this guy in the run game and he can also rush
the passer. Just what we need for the future. Deep DT class pushes him down this far, best of the mid
round DT's.

4th round - Graham Glasgow OC Michigan - Need a Center to compete badly and take over for Bodine if
he does not improve. Probably the most ignored need on the team right now.

5th round - Morgan Burns CB/KR Kansas State - This guy can play CB and return, double threat guy.

6th round - Kolby Listenbee WR TCU - Double dip some are predicting, this guy impressed me and he only
falls this far cause he was overshadowed by Doctson. This guy is actually faster from what i have seen and
could be very good. Great upside for the future.

7th round - Tra Carson RB Texas A&M- Can do it all, run, catch, block, lacks in speed but still a fine grab in
the 7th after losing Wilder and Watson last season. We will probably add a RB late. This is a good one.

Very good mock overall IMO.

I really like Coleman, but think that in an overall slow WR class, Coleman will go before the Bengals pick.
I'm a big fan of Ridgeway and think he'd be a great 4-3 NT next to Atkins.
While I too think Kaufusi is a 3rd round talent, nothing wrong with taking a round early to get a player you want.
The one pick I would change is the last. While the Bengals did lose two RBs, both were UDFAs and can be replaced by UDFAs. My recommendation would be to change this pick to a position that is more open for the regular roster (4th safety, maybe 6th LB, maybe 3rd TE).
