Bengals Select Oregon State Tight End Luke Musgrave in Peter King's Mock Draft

CINCINNATI — The Bengals go on the clock during the first round of the NFL Draft in a few days. That prompted a mock draft from NBC Sports insider Peter King.

He has the Bengals taking Oregon State tight end Luke Musgrave with the 28th pick.

"Odd in such a great class for tight ends that a guy with 1.4 catches per game in his college career, with just 633 yards receiving and two receiving touchdowns in four seasons, would be a first-round candidate. Musgrave excelled at the Senior Bowl and has been a popular pre-draft riser," King wrote.

This would be a bit shocking. Cincinnati takes Musgrave over talents like Clemson defensive end Myles Murphy and Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs in this scenario.

Musgrave ranks 50th on the consensus big board and fourth among tight ends.

Luke Musgrave is a TE prospect in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.78 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 25 out of 1104 TE from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/QYDHcn2wNQ pic.twitter.com/ZOG1llsP4r

Top size/speed combo at @seniorbowl? It was Oregon State TE Luke Musgrave, who had 16th fastest max speed (20.05 mph) of any player…AT 255 lbs! Next heaviest who ran faster was Cincy LB Ivan Pace Jr (20.58 at 231 lbs). Trusted sources think Musgrave could run 4.4 at Combine.👀 pic.twitter.com/qa3xtXm3WA
