Bengals director of personnel Duke Tobin has said Cincinnati will take the best player available when the 2023 NFL draft starts Thursday night.
A three-round mock draft from The Enquirer's Kelsey Conway has the Bengals selecting Mississippi State cornerback Emmanuel Forbes with the 28th overall pick.
In his mock draft, NFL.com's Bucky Brooks expects the Bengals to take Oklahoma offensive tackle Anton Harrison.
What to know about Harrison:
If drafted by Cincinnati, Harrison would join three other former Oklahoma standouts on the Bengals' roster.
Orlando Brown Jr., who became the Bengals' starting left tackle last month and threw out the first pitch before Tuesday's Rangers-Reds game, is a former Sooner, as are fellow offensive tackle Cody Ford and running back Joe Mixon.
