Sixth round 202nd overall WR Marquez Stevenson, Houston

In 32 career games, Stevenson added 34 kickoff returns for 889 yards, a 26.1 yard average and three TDs If the Bengals can draft Stevenson or Terry in the sixth round they would be a steal who can help them. Drafting playmakers and protection for Burrow will be important in any round.

Nwangwu was the backup to Cyclones star RB Breece Hall. In limited playing time Nwangwu finished his Iowa State career with 143 carries for 744 yards and five TDs and added added 92 kickoff returns for 2,470 yards, a 26.8 yard average and one TDs.

Finding versatile players in the mid to late rounds of the draft will be important for Cincinnati. The Bengals need to find someone to return punts after losing Alex Erickson in free agency.
