The Bengals signed LB Deshaun Davis of Auburn University, the second of their three sixth-round selections (210th overall) in the 2019 NFL Draft.

Inside The Pick: Bengals Have Georgia On Their Mind In First-Round Selection Of RT Amarius Mims

Bengals offensive line coach Frank Pollack already coaches the NFL's biggest tackle-tandem in the last 15 years. And he's not exactly tiny himself. Pro Football Reference puts the former 49ers tackle's playing size at 6-5, 285 pounds. But even Pollack spewed admiring adjectives about the dimensions of his newest player Thursday night.

Bengals Go Big In First-Round Drafting Of Amarius Mims: 'We're The Right Team To Take Him On'

The greatest player in Bengals history was considered a draft risk because he only played one full game his senior year of college with a knee injury. Choosing Anthony Munoz with the third overall pick proved to be brilliant. Amarius Mims missed six games with an ankle injury last year and only started eight games in three seasons at Georgia, but the Bengals didn't hesitate to select him with the 18th pick Thursday night in the first round of the NFL Draft.
