They could go with arguably their biggest immediate need with DE but will the remaining DEs at 9 be that much better than those available at 41?
They could go WR, which could make sense given LaFell is only on a two-year deal. But there are debates about which receiver is best for the team. Williams = size. Ross = speed. Davis = route running.
They could go TE with Eifert approaching FA and being fragile.
They could go RB with Bernard recovering from injury, Hill being lackluster the past two seasons and entering a contract year, and Burkhead leaving in FA.
They could even go LB if they like what Haason Reddick has to offer and the fact both Burfict and Minter are in contract years.
They could even go OL with the departures of Whitworth and Zeitler, but the OL picks are considered underwhelming for a top 10 selection.
Great post. Predicting the Bengals pick is so hard this year.
I think that Jamal Adams, S, LSU is the 2nd or 3rd best player in the draft. I think the Bengals have a legit shot at him if the go BPA.
If they go for a need, man... everything you pointed out, except Oline, is there for them. Oline this draft is super weak at the top.
