From the CBS Draft Tracker Grade A:
Quote:Of course faced smaller-school competition, but dominated it. Linear, fluid athlete who's great in end-around game and down the field. Tracks it awesomely and plays to his larger size. Think Christian Watson Lite. Awesome pick this late. (Chris Trapasso)

Welcome to the team, Andrei Iosivas! May you make the team and realize your dream of catching passes from Joe Burrow.

It's official..I don't wanna catch an NFL pass from Burrow.. I'm old and he'd knock a hole right through me. I doubt I'd survive it..

It's going to be fun to see how two new WRs contribute to the team. I hope this dude has a good career with us.

Judging by his name and his name alone. This guy is going to love 4ways.
Welcome to the team Andrei!

He was always the most tempting WR late in all of my mocks as well. Glad to have Iosivas. Great size, speed combo.
Reminds me of Christian Watson of the Packers last year. Just don't want to see those drops on those deep ballz son.

Check out his stats from the combine; they compare very favorably to guys chosen much earlier.

Is this our Higgins replacement? Glad we added to the WR depth it was definitely needed.

Good pick, makes more sense than the Purdue WR drafted earlier. Jones will have to stick as a special teams ace, Andre can be a legit #3, and in a perfect world might end up being our Miles Austin.

Not at all, different styles.
Think more like Chris Henry style.

Charlie Jones is much more than just a ST's player. Some of you just don't have a clue.

Like the potential for Iosivas.
Good WR4 type guy who could fill for either outside WR down the line.
Charlie Jones could (should) bump Trent Taylor off the roster and handle return duties immediately.
Jones also could turn into Boyd's replacement after this season.
Bengals set themselves up well for WRs, albeit potential at the cost of having a weak TE room.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

This will make the Bengals 4 and 5 wide absolutely vicious. Love the pick. This kid will be an absolute rockstar.

What was this? Hopefully this is a Mohamed Sanu and Marvin Jones level of success WR draft class. That would be very helpful.
The astronomical ceiling on this pick what we needed to juice up the end of our WR depth chart

If we can get to 10 or 00 personnel packages and protect with Charlie Jones and Iosivas we are going to be tough to deal with.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
