Bengals Take Close Look at Wide Receiver Prospect, Potential D-Line Targets at LSU Pro Day
CINCINNATI — Bengals wide receivers coach Troy Walters and defensive line coach Marion Hobby attended LSU’s Pro Day on Wednesday.
They wanted to get an up close and personal look at Brian Thomas Jr., Mekhi Wingo and Jordan Jefferson.
They also got to see Malik Nabers, but the Tigers star receiver is a lock to be a top-10 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft next month.
Thomas is another talented wide receiver. He’s expected to be taken in the first round, but could be available when the Bengals are on the clock.
Both Wingo and Jefferson are potential mid-round targets. The Bengals have 10 picks. It’s reasonable to expect them to target mid-round defensive line help, even if they take a tackle early in the draft.
There were 13 wide receivers coaches at the Pro Day, including the Giants, Chargers, Bills, Colts, Panthers, Titans, Cowboys, Jets, Saints, Jaguars, Broncos and Cardinals.
There were also eight defensive line coaches in attendance, including the Ravens, Steelers, Broncos, Chiefs, Raiders, Vikings and Saints.
Jim Nagy has the full list of coaches that attended LSU’s Pro Day. Check it out below:
