The Cincinnati Bengals selected Ohio State DE Sam Hubbard with the 77th overall selection and Texas LB Malik Jefferson with the 78th overall pick.

Footballguys View: The Bengals needed help everywhere and improve their defense with Hubbard – a solid but unspectacular end with a big motor who can blitz – and Jefferson 1 who has the physical traits teams like but rarely seemed to produce with them. Both are upside picks, but their floors are significantly low.
