Lap and Solly talk about the four positions they believe will be the biggest priorities for the Bengals in the upcoming draft; offensive tackle, defense tackle, cornerback, and wide receiver. They guarantee those four positions will be drafted it just depends on what round those picks will happen.

Bengals On The Brain Episode 69: Explosive Trent Brown / Sheldon Rankins Analysis
In Episode 69 of Bengals On The Brain, presented by First Star Logistics, we discuss the additions of right tackle Trent Brown and defensive lineman Sheldon Rankins, two of the Cincinnati Bengals' newest members.
Brown, a massive offensive lineman with experience at both tackle positions, signed a one-year deal early in the week and should fill the Bengals' needs at right tackle.
With DJ Reader's loss to the Detroit Lions, the Bengals got aggressive in signing Rankins to a two-year, $26 million deal, beating out the Texans as they look to secure a better pass rush this season.
The two signings do not mean the Bengals are done at either position, leaving much talk leading up to the NFL Draft, which is only five weeks away.

Cincinnati Bengals Solomon Wilcots | Will the Bengals Draft Brock Bowers or Right Tackle at Pick 18
Former Cincinnati Bengal and sports commenter Solomon Wilcots joins us today on In the Trenches with Dave Lapham to discuss his time at the NFL combine and who impressed him the most when it comes to who the Bengals should target with their first-round pick.
Lap and Solomon discuss what a lot of Bengal fans are debating right now, should the Bengals take or trade up for TE prospect Brock Bowers or take their future right tackle with their first-round selection?
It's a win-win for the Bengals at pick #18 because anyway they decide to go they will be getting an immediate impact player. With the 2024 tackle class being one of the best in recent memory one or maybe two of those tackles will be there and would immediately start at right tackle. On the other hand, the Bengals haven't had a solid long-term tight end since they drafted Tyler Eifert in 2013. Brock Bowers is viewed by many to be a generational-type prospect and the idea of him, Jamaar Chase, Tee Higgins, and Joe Burrow all together is very exciting to think about. The Bengals did sign free agent Mike Gesicki, to a one-year deal but the Bengals need to address the position in the draft as they haven't drafted a tight end since Drew Sample in 2019.
Let us know in the comments below who you would draft in the first round! Brock Bowers or right tackle?
We want to thank Solomon Wilcots for being a fantastic guest and for joining us today on In the Trenches with Dave Lapham brought to you by First Star Logistics.
