Original Pick- Jordan Evans, Linebacker, Oklahoma
Jordan Evans wasn’t a bad pick by the Bengals, especially at this point in the draft. Under Marvin Lewis, Evans played often but was a liability at times in coverage. Under Taylor, the former Sooner linebacker hasn’t been able to make it on the field much and he may be on his way out the door.
The Redskins found a quality center here in Chase Roullier. Although the Bengals have a solid anchor in Trey Hopkins themselves, adding Roullier to potentially play one of the other two interior offensive line positions would be a welcomed pick-up.
Original Pick- Brandon Wilson, Safety, Houston
For the third time in this draft, the Bengals stick with their original selection. While there may be other players available who could make an impact, the niche Brandon Wilson has carved out with the Bengals has worked out too well to look elsewhere.
the speedy defensive back has turned into a deadly kick off return man and it seems as if he’s only scratching the surface of his potential.
Original Pick- Mason Schreck, Tight End, Buffalo
Considering the Bengals selected Mason Schreck with the third to last pick in the final round, there are not many other directions to go.
The free-agent class didn’t produce any household names either, so the Bengals will stick with their selection and see if the potential they saw in the Buffalo tight end pans out.
