More than likely, if he's there in the 2nd round and we didn't take a RB in the 1st, then I think it's likely we take him. However, I remember back in 2010 when we were linked to every TE except Gresham. Everyone knew that we needed a TE and mocked him to us a lot. We tried to downplay it, but it obviously failed.
I feel like the Bengals are higher on Fournette in the RB market and are trying to dismay people from jumping them.
That's my impression as well. I think the guy they really want in this draft is Fournette.
