The Cincinnati Bengals weren’t quite the same on offense in 2016 without Marvin Jones and Mohamed Sanu. They still have Julio Jones but Dalton needs to go somewhere with the ball if the defense takes Jones away. So another dependable target that can make defenses pay for focusing on Jones is in order.
The Bengals tightened up their defense in free agency, signing ILB Kevin Minter in free agency. Williams would be a chain-mover and make an occasional play down the field for the Bengals immediately. It looks like HC Marvin Lewis is in on the hot seat these days so this would have to work out.

Mike Williiams
WR, Clemson
Former Clemson WR Mike Williams is that 6’4″, 225-pound, modern day WR we see around the NFL. He’s not a great route-runner or a master of getting separation but he catches the ball anyway. He uses his size to wall defenders off and height and reach to catch the ball over them.
Williams also has decent hops, creating that much larger of a catch radius for his QB. He can catch the ball over the middle while absorbing contact and he’s hard to bring down after the catch. And if your team likes to run ball, he’s a great run blocker that will spring his RB in the secondary.
