The Cincinnati Bengals enter Round 4 of the 2020 NFL draft on Saturday looking at another high-value pick likely addressed while also hitting a need.
With quarterback, wideout and linebacker out of the way, the Bengals are free to address either set of trenches or merely go after best player available.
These are the top options.
James Lynch, EDGE, Baylor
The Bengals should have an interest in any defensive lineman getting a comp to underrated Washington standout Matt Ioannidis.
Lynch, 6’4″ and 289 pounds, is a scheme-versatile sort of defender who can come in at 3-tech or 5-tech and dramatically boost a rotation. That’s the sort of thing the Bengals could use as insurance inside if Ryan Glasgow once again can’t stay healthy or Renell Wren doesn’t develop well.
The Bengals were interested enough to have a pre-draft interview with him.
