Marcus Lucas, our 186th ranked tight end, is best suited to
be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Cincinnati Bengals because they
could use a player of this quality after losing Drew Sample for an extended period of time. The Bengals
currently have 3 healthy tight ends, and 2 are
rated better than Lucas: (Tanner Hudson and Mitchell Wilcox).
The Bengals currently have no
tight ends under contract beyond the 2027 season,
so Lucas may only be getting a short term deal, considering his age, with the team.
