Yeah not a bad write up.
Honestly the team could go into next season with the current roster and not have any glaring weaknesses. But almost every position could use a pick here or there to battle for a spot or give some youth. So it's hard to say that there are any huge needs. _________________

If that's his order of need, I disagree. I would also replace TE with OG and move it up. _________________ 2013 Draft Needs: RB, Safety. Maybe RT and backup LBs |

Pretty good write up.
I think the Bengals will be fine with Donald Lee as their 2nd TE. Maybe take a guy like James Hanna if he is there in the 5th, a former WR, now TE.
I think at G it will be Decastro or bust.
I definitely agree about a pass rusher. Michael Johnson hasn't developed into the sack artist we hoped for, and Geathers is at the end of his rope.
Same with CB. We have plenty of veteran depth for this year, but we need to get younger there. Still won't reach for one though.
I expect a WR in the first 3 picks. _________________

Doesn't mention Jason Allen...Doesn't include G...Doesn't mention S...Doesn't mention LB...
The most average of football fans could've written this. _________________

This is pretty much how I feel about it. Guard needs to be addressed early on. CB and WR as well.
Maybe I am off, but I think they like the potential of the 8 man rotation with Anderson and Harvey. If those guys both stick, there's no room for a higher draft pick. I would agree with taking one later and developing. _________________
