Texas Defensive Tackle Byron Murphy Lands With Bengals in The Athletic's Latest Mock Draft
CINCINNATI — The Athletic's Dane Brugler released his latest 2024 NFL mock draft and has the Bengals taking Texas defensive lineman Byron Murphy at Pick 18.
Murphy is the consensus top defensive tackle in the 2024 NFL Draft and the 18th-best player overall.
"Right tackle feels like the most likely option for the Bengals," Brugler wrote. "But — as happened here with five OTs off the board early — what happens if their targeted options get wiped out? I think the focus then would shift to defensive tackle, and Murphy would be a great fit for what Cincinnati likes at the position. He is terrific against the run and relentless to the quarterback."
Cincinnati rarely takes defensive tackles in the first round—but the talent and need could match at No. 18.
