What up Bengals fans and welcome to another episode of the Lockdown Bengals podcast.

I'm Jake Liscoe.

We are your host of Lockdown Bengals.

And today we take a look at who we think the most likely candidates are for the

Cincinnati Bengals pick at number 10. Hopefully these guys that are in the most likely candidates list

are guys that will be cornerstone players for this team or a cornerstone player for this team.

They're only picking one guy at 10, but they badly need a cornerstone player, James. And if they can find that kind of guy, a Joe Burrow Jamar Chase kind of player, that's hard to do. Those guys are picked earlier than 10. Don't get me wrong. But when you're picking in the top 10, you're looking for big, big impact. The Bengals

shouldn't be picking in the top 10 very often. So big opportunity this year. And we need to talk

about who we think are some of the likely candidates. We've talked about a lot of the guys that

make a lot of sense, right? We've talked about guys we would target. We've gone through some mock scenarios, James, but the names most commonly mock to the

Bengals, the names we think the Bengals will be interested in, the guys we think will be available

to them are all part of the formula of coming up with who we think the most likely picks

are for the Bengals of 10.

Yeah, I think it's interesting because we've talked a lot about a lot about these

guys for months now in some cases. And I think that the the player that fans would mention the

most, it's one of two. It's either Jeremiah, no, I'm just kidding. It's either Ruben Bain or it's Caleb Downs. And I think those would be the two that fans would say, if you pulled every, every day or every locked on Bengals listener, every Bengals fan on the planet, it doesn't really matter what kind of pull you want to do. I think those are the two that fans would mention the most are those the two

most likely picks i think that's where the the dilemma is it's it's much different to want that
