Agreed. He is a bit light but that’s ok.

Looked but did not see the full picks the Bengals have as yet. So, here are the first 3 (r1-24, r2-55, r3-88) r1-24 - Justin Gilbert - CB - Oklahoma State University Really like this guy, has all the tools and is versatile (CB/FS/KR). Some might think he does not have "long" speed, however it is more his short-area quickness that I might worry about. His long stride makes me confident in his long speed. He is not really a "man" corner, in the mold of Revis (or on our team Pacman). He is more like Richard Sherman (size speed and skill-wise). I see him as the best possible insurance in case Hall simply does not have it any more, which is certainly possible given his two achilles injuries, or if Newman proves vulnerable (age). He can play some safety (kind of like Crocker) and can also return kicks (buh-bye Tate).

I think bringing in another talented young guy can't hurt the WR spot. I feel he'd be an upgrade to the Whalen, Tate and Sanzenbackups of the world. Plus, we all recall the hole left when Baby Hawk was down. "He proved to arguably be the nation’s top wide receiver on third down, ranking No. 1 nationally with 453 yards, six touchdowns, 15 catches of 15-plus yards and six catches of 25-plus yards on third down this season. - LSU football" ...not a bad thing to have on board.

Was again a weak spot for Bengals, with Mays needing to become a hybrid due to Lamur injury. Has height and speed, something that can't be said for Maualuga. The LB depth cold be a strong point with Lamur, Joiner and Porter coming back from injury, and with Taze, Rey, Vinny and Harrison in the fold, also Dimanche also played well on ST, so he's in the mix. On the other hand, those injuries point to need for real depth and Jones would be that or more. "Tremendous athlete with has fluid footwork who flawlessly flips his hips to blanket tight ends or receivers down the field in coverage. Tall and long, which he uses well in coverage. Plays with excellent range and speed to chase down the action, taking proper angles in pursuit. Flashes the take-on strength to blow past blockers when he uses proper technique. - CBS Draft profile" Link: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1737228/christian-jones
