Yes you do. You do it in the first round, too. The Bengals have one of the most talented rosters in football so there are very very few rookies in any round that would start or be a major contributor outside of special teams.
Besides that, a small WR is not something that is a feature in the Bengals offense. That type of player is used as an outlet valve. Nor does it have to be featured with the personnel they have. There's just no need for that type of guy to be a featured high round pick. But, talent is talent so if they would have grabbed him... great.
Frankly, I didn't want a WR in this draft anyway. There are PLENTY of playmakers in their prime across the board for the Bengals. Offensive line youth & depth were much more important and I think Fisher is a great prospect.
