Benglas deep six with trade up for speedy safety; TE in seventh

Brandon Wilson: object of the fourth trade up in Bengals' history.

In the sixth round, the Bengals added linebacker Jordan Evans of Oklahoma and then traded up with Tennessee to add cornerback Brandon Wilson of Houston, a former teammate of Bengals cornerback William Jackson III.

Wilson is only the fourth player ever the Bengals traded up to get in the draft, joining running back Ki-Jana Carter in the first round in 1995, tight end Matt Schobel in the third in 2002 and center Russell Bodine in the fourth in 2014.
