Bengals Options in Round 1
The Bengals have needs on the offensive and defensive line. They could target options like offensive tackle Troy Fautanu from Washington or JC Latham from Alabama. On the defensive side of the football, they could take defensive tackle Byron Murphy from Texas. If an elite cornerback like Terrion Arnold is available at number 18, he might be too good to pass up.
One of the major issues in recent years has been protecting star quarterback Joe Burrow so it wouldn’t be surprising to see the Bengals jump on the best available offensive lineman in round 1.
