Bengals Grab Versatile Lineman Parker
Description
The Cincinnati Bengals selected Brian Parker, a versatile offensive lineman from Duke, with the 189th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Parkers experience at tackle and center, along with his ability to snap at center from high school, makes him a valuable backup to Ted Karras at center while Connor Lew recovers from a torn ACL. Fans and draft analysts are praising this pick, comparing Parker to Duke alum Graham Barton and seeing him as a potential steal. Parker could also compete for the swing tackle position or eye the right guard spot long-term, providing depth and flexibility to the Bengals offensive line.
