Bengals Take Adetomiwa Adebawore Among Others in The Athletic's Seven-Round Mock Draft

CINCINNATI — The Athletic's Dane Brugler released his annual full seven-round mock draft this week and started the Bengals off with Northwestern defensive tackle Adetomiwa Adebawore.

"From his standout performance at the Senior Bowl to elite testing numbers at the combine, no player has aced the pre-draft process quite like Adebawore," Brugler wrote. "Like most teams, the Bengals are searching for explosive defensive linemen on the interior, and the Northwestern three-technique could fill that role."

Adebawore is the consensus 43rd-ranked player and eighth-best edge rusher.

The most notable part of this mock was Brugler's sourced comment on the Cowboys loving Michael Mayer. It's seem highly unlikely the tight end falls past Dallas at No. 26.

"As one plugged-in league source told me about Mayer and the Cowboys: 'I just can’t see Dallas passing,'" Brugler wrote.

Next, Brugler went with UCLA running back Zach Charbonnet at Pick 60. Charbonnet is the consensus 55th-ranked player overall and the third-best running back.

In the third round, Cincinnati selected Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Steen. He is the consensus 97th-ranked player overall and the 10th-best offensive tackle.

Here are the rest of the picks along with their consensus big board ranking:

No. 131 - Old Dominion TE Zach Kuntz (117th overall)

No. 163 - South Alabama CB Darrell Luter Jr. (254th overall)

No. 206 - UCLA QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson (161st overall)

No. 246 - Maryland WR Rakim Jarrett (199th overall)
