Bengals use fifth-round pick on versatile OL Christian Westerman

With their second Day 3 pick Saturday, the Cincinnati Bengals turned to the interior of the offensive line, selecting Arizona State guard/center Christian Westerman.

My take: The Bengals have done a good job in this draft of using all five of their draft picks to this point on players from different positions. They've gone cornerback, receiver, linebacker, defensive line and now offensive line. These moves are all about bolstering depth, and particularly the back end depth as it comes to the most recent three picks. That said, though, in typical Bengals fashion, don't be surprised if some of these rookies contribute in some capacity this season.
