move.Wilkins is projected to be a late-first rounder, so there should be other defensive linemen ahead of him that are higher on

With Wilkins’ ability to stop the run and rush the passer Jeff Driskel Jersey White , Wilkins would give the Bengals a formidable front four."Clemson’s dominant defensive line helped keep Alabama’s offense to 16 points in the national championship, the fewest amount of points they scored all season. Now, three of their linemen have entered the draft, and scouts are all over them.The group was lead by Christian Wilkins, the captain who anchored the line from Day 1. Wilkins Womens John Ross Jersey , like Ed Oliver, has had hype surrounding him since his freshman year. We finally get to see which pro defense will benefit from his cornucopia of skills.Clemson’s defensive line was considered for years to be the best on college football. If Wilkins was to land on the same line as Geno Atkins and Carlos Dunlap, the same might possibly be said about the Bengals. What would it look like if he went from the Tigers to the Bengals?Why this pick makes sense:Wilkins earned his bachelor’s degree after only two and a half years, which shows not only how smart he is, but how hard of a worker he is. He is known for his great off-the-field qualities as well as his athletic prowess.He has experience all over the defensive line.A four year starter Clark Harris Jersey White , he has plenty of experience under his belt.He consistently maintains great hand placement and pad level.Wilkins has great flexibility, especially for someone his sizeNot only he strong and flexible, but he is also very explosive.Wilkins is even great with coverage in zone-blitzes.Why this pick doesn’t make sense:Sometimes Wilkins comes out so fast to start that he fades quickly during the rep.Lacks length, so he can get swallowed up by bigger offensive linemen.His lower body isn’t strong enough to give him a good base, throwing him off balance at times C.J. Uzomah Jersey White , especially when he’s on the move.Wilkins is projected to be a late-first rounder, so there should be other defensive linemen ahead of him that are higher on the Bengals’ draft board.His lack of length would be a problem for the Bengals if he is matched up with Atkins, who is also on the smaller end.While Wilkins is mainly a run-stopper, that would be something the Bengals could use. If the Bengals were to select Wilkins, he could open things up for Atkins and Dunlap Womens Boomer Esiason Jersey , who would be less likely to face double-teams. The defense is in such disrepair that Wilkins could add some much needed help. Over a week before the Bengals officially announced that they hired Zac Taylor as their new head coach, there was word that former Jaguars and Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio was in the running to be their defensive coordinator.The official announcement of Taylor’s hiring came on Monday and it was followed by a report that Del Rio was set to formally interview for the job this week, but it appears that won’t be happening.Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Bengals and Del Rio have decided that a working relationship between them is not a “perfect fit.” Per the report, Del Rio and Taylor spoke to one another before reaching this conclusion. Del Rio is still being paid by the Raiders after being fired with three years left on his contract, which makes it easier to wait for a perfect fit to come along.Taylor will be introduced at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon and could provide some idea of where a defensive coordinator search might go without Del Rio in the mix.
