Round 6: Pick 206 - Dante Stills, DT (West Virginia)

By this point in the draft, the Bengals are mostly hoping to find players who can fight for a roster spot and play special teams. Dante Stills fits that category. He's considered to be undersized which is definitely working against him but he could be a rotational piece.

Round 7: Pick 246 - Jason Brownlee Jr., WR (Southern Mississippi)

The Bengals will have their starting trio of Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Tyler Boyd locked in for the 2023 season (or at least that's the hope) but depth is something they could use at the position. Jason Brownlee Jr. had an impressive 2022 season for Southern Miss, tallying 55 receptions for 891 yards and eight touchdowns.

Seventh-round picks are hit and miss but given the Bengals' needs at wide receiver behind their starting three, Brownlee could have a shot to make the team and contribute.
