Bengals workout D.J. Humphries

Personally I'd love to see them take a flyer on Dorial Green-Beckham at 21. May not be the YAC guy we need but the guy is a rare talent.

I think character with him is a real issue.

Though, I don't disagree that a rookie could start at WR. I could easily see Dorsett starting off in the slot immediately, but in reality he'd still probably be just the 4th WR behind Jones and Sanu (healthy of course).

Same with Tyler, which is why I said that this spot here is really the most ready position for a rookie starter. Even if Tyler is healthy, they could use a real solid blocking TE, and that would probably get the bulk of the snaps over Tyler who is more pass-oriented overall, and not much of a blocker.

You can find a decent blocking TE in rounds 3-6 though. So I doubt TE would be the ideal pick with our first round selection.

I would have to think our first rounder will be OT, DT or WR, maybe outside chance at CB if Marcus Peters is there with their pick and they feel he will not fall to their second round pick, and they really have the urge to send Hall packing because of his salary this year.

Right.

That was kind of my point, that the one real position on offense that could be open for a rookie to start isn't probably going to happen.

I am glad we are on the same page then. Here is a LIKE for your well thought out plan.
