Are Bengals telegraphing one of their obvious draft choices this year?

The Cincinnati Bengals don’t make a big secret out of who they target in drafts.

With limited well-known personnel to send to pro days, the Bengals are pretty easy to read when it comes to draft targets.

One of those appears to be Louisiana Tech defensive tackle Milton Williams, who just put on a show at his pro day with a 39-inch vertical jump, 34 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press and a 4.62 40-yard dash at 6’3″ and 284 pounds.

Per Pro Football Network’s Tony Pauline, the Bengals were there and had an interest. Cincinnati simply showing up says a lot — and Williams would fit a big need as the Bengals look to add more three-tech depth after the cut of Geno Atkins.

As far as obvious draft targets go, the Bengals also had a heavy presence at Florida State and Alabama pro days, Frank Pollack watched a key USC name and the staff showed up at South Carolina’s pro day.
