Apr 19, 2014; Auburn, AL, USA; Auburn Tigers receiver D

22. Cincinnati Bengals- Duke Williams, WR, Auburn

A.J. Green remains one of the best wide receivers in the NFL but it’s time the Cincinnati Bengals get him some help. Adding a big-play threat like Duke Williams would help draw coverage away from Green’s side of the field.

The Bengals offense would be really tough to stop with two high-end pass catching threats. Their running game is so strong that defensive coordinators must consider pulling defenders into the box, but would need to think twice with Williams in the mix.

Cincinnati could also target someone to come in and help the pass rush, as they were one of the league’s worst last season.
