There might be other positions of need the Bengals could look too by right now the strength of the board is at edge rusher and no team ever regretted having too many guys who can rush the passer.

Zach Allen is an ideal 4-3 defensive end. He’s got size and power throughout his frame to go along with good snap anticipation and quickness. He can win the block in a variety of ways.

Playing on that loaded Bengals front will make life easier on him and the defense that much better.
