Cincinnati Bengals Pulled Off HIGHWAY ROBBERY + ESPN Draft Rumors
The Cincinnati Bengals pulled off highway robbery with the free agency addition of Jonathan Allen. FOX Sports listed the Bengals new defensive tackle as an under-the-radar deal in the 2026 NFL offseason. Duke Tobin and Zac Taylor are hoping Allen is a difference maker on defensive coordinator Al Golden’s 2026 Bengals defense. Bengals Breakdown host Billy Beebe also reacts to ESPN linking Cincinnati to Keldric Faulk ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Bengals Rumors from FOX Sports on Jonathan Allen: “Yes, Allen has struggled from a production standpoint in producing sacks, with just 12 over the last three seasons. But Allen should be more of an impact player as a situational pass rusher with a reduction in snaps. And the Bengals could use competency and versatility up front defensively. Allen joins former Seattle Seahawks edge rusher Boye Mafe and safety Bryan Cook from Kansas City to add reinforcements to a Cincinnati defense that finished No. 30 in scoring last season.”

Bengals draft rumors from ESPN’s Jordan Reid on Keldric Faulk: “He fits the exact archetype that teams covet near the top of the draft. At 6-foot-5, 276 pounds, Faulk’s pass-rush production took a step back in 2025, but he’s only 21 and one of the best run defenders in the class. When speaking to scouts, Greg Rousseau and Mykel Williams are two NFL comparisons for him. The Chiefs at No. 9 and the Bengals at No. 10 overall are two teams to watch here.”

Grade the signing of Jonathan Allen! A, B, C, D or F
A-
Faulk is a 3rd rounder. We need the best talent available. This is a bad time to reach.
Another Stewart, horrible pick. I would rather get an offense weapon than that guy, horrible
ESPN says this 😆
Faulk would be like draftin stewart
B+
It all depends on who's there. If we want safety at 10 they should draft the Toledo Safety.
BJ Hill should be the DT3 behind TJ Slayton. Hill just didn't look good last season after getting a big 3 year deal from CFO… it coukd be do to injury but everyone plays injured in the NFL. Hope he has a better season. Cut his snaps back please.
Faulk would be the worst move so buckle up Faulk gonna be the pick.
Faulk waaaaay to high at 10. I'd be mad. Not pissed not irate. But, definitely irritated.
Look alike camera bought me here 😂
I would lose my mind if we drafted Faulk we need proven production not another what if when our defense is garbage
A
I hope we don't take Folk but I can see the Bengals drafting him.
Feel like this defense will start off strong but im wondering will they be consistent throughout the year
If the bengals draft Faulk I’m switching teams
B
Joe Flacco
Oh no not Faulk at 10 ,no,no,no, major reach, at 2nd rd maybe but no I would stay away from that guy really
Cook #1
Cook
Cook/Mafa and Allen. Immediate starters and Allen is a leader which we needed badly. A for free agency.
Jonathan will help the younger tackle development
Mafe was a good signing for me. I like Cook as well
I think Stewart will be more than what others are saying
