No. 9 Cincinnati Bengals: LB Reuben Foster
School: Alabama
Position: Linebacker
Class: Senior
Outlook: Foster stays at nine to the Bengals for the second consecutive mock. It makes a lot of sense for Cincinnati to add a young piece to a core that needs depth. Foster was considered one of the two best players on an Alabama defense that was one of the best in college football. Foster finished last season with 115 tackles and five sacks. Alabama coach Nick Saban spoke with SEC Country about his impact in their locker room. “One of the things that makes Reuben a very popular guy from a personality standpoint is, in a day and age where everybody is into selfies and ‘what about me,’ he’s a guy that’s pretty interested in the relationships that he has and how he affects other people,” Saban told SEC Country. This was before Foster was sent home from the Combine for a "heated exchange" with a medical worker. This can do nothing but hurt his draft stock. (Getty)
