A lot has changed since Bengals.com published its last mock Draft roundup.
Back then the Bengals didn't have OT Cordy Glenn, LB Preston Brown, or DT Chris Baker. In early March Tyler Eifert's return status was also unknown.
But now all those players are on board for 2018 and our Draft pick has moved to the 21st overall selection.
Who will be sitting atop the board in this spot?
Here's who the media is saying will be available when the Bengals are on the clock:
