The 2016 Draft Needs: Offense - WR (2), LT/G, OC Defense - CB, SS/FS, DT/NT, SLB
Offense: a WR to replace Marvin Jones, a slot receiver to replace Mohammed Sanu. A late round Left Tackle/Guard…. Whitworth might retire after this season also we could use a back-up behind Boling.
Special Teams – a UDFA kicker to push Nugent, a K/P returner to challenge Brandon Tate.
Defense - Bengals need to add speed to the defense in the 2016 Draft, a DT/NT – Peko is about done, a tall fast SLB (6-3” or taller to cover TE’s, H-Backs and Fullbacks), an ILB to push Rey and Hawk also, we could use a tall Safety (Iloka has missed a few games last few years)
2016 Bengals Draft
1. (Pick 24) – DT NT Jarran Reed, ALA, 6-3, 320, 5.21; This guy is a beast and can play all over the D-line; Peko's time is short, now is the time to train his replacement. he will rotate with Peko ans Sims and will play most if not all of the third downs.
2. (Pick 55) – WR/PR Sterling Shepherd, OKLA, 5-10, 195, 4.45; all he does is catch the ball and score touchdowns.
3. (Pick 87) - CB/KR/PR Will Redmond, MSS, 5-10.5, 185, 4.50; he is quick with excellent ball skills, he is a young Adam Jones, will need a year to learn it all.
4. (Pick 122) – WR Malcolm Mitchell, UGA, 5-11.5, 200, 4.45; has a large catching radius and will play multiple receiver positions.
5. (Pick 161) – FS Tyvis Powell, OSU, 6-2.5, 210, 4.46; he will sit on inactive list until he learns defense, then will play special teams and back-up safety year 1.
6. (Pick 199) – O/SLB Travis Feeney, WASH, 6-3.5, 235, 4.50; an edge rusher who also will play special teams year 1 while he learns the defense.
