Tracking Bengals Prospect Meetings: 2025 Draft

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

This was just what I could find, quickly. I am sure it is not complete or exhaustive. Nor does it include, for the most part, general visits to team pro days, since I cannot tell which players we were looking at, not definitively, anyway.

But if someone wants to add that in, go for it. Just try to include which Bengsls folks were there, which school, and which prodpects.

Forgive if this kind of thing has already been started, if it has, I whiffed on seeing it. But we can use it as a starting point to track our interest.

A former TBB poster keeps track of the visits on Twitter. Also add in Miami of Ohio LB Ty Wise to the below list.

A friend of mine said that the Bengals LB coach was at the South Carolina pro day but he didn't know they had a new coach so he may have seen James Bettcher (former Bengals LB coach current Colts LB coach).

[BFritz21]

Love that they're meeting with Nolen but it's unfortunate that he's rising up boards and we'd have to take him in the first.

If we can get a quality guard or two after the first and sign one in FA (maybe after final cuts), then I'd still love Nolen and think he could do big things for our defense.

Add Marshall Safety JJ Roberts to the list. PFF has him as the highest graded safety in the country. Had 14 passes defended, 2nd most in nation. RAS of 9.67 despite small stature. Played QB in HS. 3 years at Wake Forest and some experience at CB.


Projected as an UDFA or late Day 3 guy. I LOVE this visit. I get Yoshi/Heyward vibes on this guy. FS all the way dye to size, but not afraid to tackle.

Add Miami OT Jalen Rivers and South Carolina DT T.J. Sanders to the visit list.

[*Nate (formerly eliminate08)*]

Thanks for this thread, these are usually the players we draft so this is a big deal.

Savaiineae I believe we also met with.

I like TJ Sanders as a Rd 3 prospect, although I've been often waiting until Rd 4 to take DT, which is why I haven't mocked him before.
I did post a mock recently of OG in Rd 3, DT in Rd 4, but if we were to flip positions, I would look for TJ Sanders in Rd 3.

[*Synric*]

Here's the updated list. Visits ended middle of last week I believe.

Very disappointing Campbell from Bama not on the list. He would love him with Wilson running the defense.

Very surprising. Daniel Jeremiah has him 12th on his list of top 150 prospects (nfl.com).  Here is his write-up of Jihaad Campbell.

Campbell is a tall, rangy and explosive linebacker. He was recruited to Alabama as an edge rusher but initially moved to linebacker because of the Crimson Tide’s depth on the edges (SEE: Will Anderson Jr. and Dallas Turner, among others). This past season, he played both off the ball and on the edge. As an off-ball linebacker, he doesn’t possess elite instincts but offers excellent speed and physicality. He can range sideline to sideline and flashes the ability to thump off blockers and collect tackles on inside runs. He displays exciting tools in his pass-rush opportunities off the edge. He can burst/bend and finish. He also grew more comfortable in coverage throughout the 2024 season. He anticipates routes and positions himself to make plays on the ball. As for his health, Campbell underwent left shoulder surgery this spring and teams are a little bit divided on how that will impact his draft position. Overall, Campbell expands the playbook for defensive coordinators and his best football is ahead of him.

[*ochocincos*]

Refresher on who the Bengals have actually met with that are considered 1st round possible guys:
- Nick Emmanwori, SAF
- Malaki Starks, SAF
- Walter Nolen, DT
- Tyler Warren, TE (before they signed Gesicki)
- Colston Loveland, TE (before they signed Gesicki)
- Emeka Egbuka, WR (before they signed Higgins)
- Matthew Golden, WR (before they signed Higgins)
- James Pearce Jr., DE/EDGE
- Mike Green, DE/EDGE
- Nic Scourton, DE
- Shemar Stewart, DE
- Mykel Williams, DE/EDGE
- Will Johnson, CB
- Josh Simmons, OT
- Josh Conerly Jr., OT

Feeling like it's pass rusher, OL, or SAF based on the visits.
Can toss a pass catcher in there, but I would have a hard time believing since those visits were all before FA signings and they haven't met with the big names again since then.

You forgot Ashton Jeanty.

Oh yea, I did.
Another dude not expecting to make it to Bengals, but it would be REAL interesting if he did and they took him.
Going RB early after having Brown blossom last year, restructuring Moss to likely keep him this year, and signing Perine for this year too...that'd be a shocker.
They would HAVE to go OL and DL on Day 2 if they used Rd 1 for a pure BPA (arguably luxury) pick.

I HIGHLY doubt he makes it to 17.  Some have him as the #1OA prospect in the draft.  But if he does, I'd nab him in a heartbeat.  We usually carry 4 RB's and we won't have to worry about paying Brown.

Ya know, this isn't a strong QB draft.
Jeanty is one of the best RB prospects in a long while.

Could we see a crazy scenario where Titans actually draft Jeanty to anchor that offense for the next 5 years and just run a game manager QB?
I doubt it because Callahan will think he's a QB whisperer, but I don't think it'd be a bad strategy.
A star RB's 2nd contract is sure a hell of a lot cheaper than a star QB's 2nd contract.

[Bengalstripes9]

Interesting that Walter Nolen is the only DT prospect looked at.
Wonder how early he will go.

I'd like Nolen or Starks myself.
Or one of the tight ends.
Or I'd love to see them hit on an edge.
