​Cincinnati Bengals

Needs Entering Draft: WR, OT, DE, DT, ILB
Positions Drafted: RB, WR, TE, IOL, DE, DT, ILB

The Cincinnati Bengals also worked the board and made the most of values. Explosive receiver John Ross is the perfect complement to possession superstar A.J. Green and shifty slot man Tyler Boyd. Wide receiver Josh Malone was also a sneaky find in the late fourth. J.J. Dielman plays center and guard, and he could be a versatile option for an offensive line that needs help and depth all over.

The third and fourth rounds were invested in finding Michael Johnson's successor with the picks of defensive ends Jordan Willis and Carl Lawson. Defensive tackle Ryan Glasgow will be able to slide into the middle of the line and anchor it against the run, while adding some pass-rush juice, too.

The Bengals needed more help in the linebacking corps than sixth-rounder Jordan Evans, so it remains to be seen how comfortable they are with Paul Dawson and Nick Vigil.
