The Bengals today signed two draft choices, DT Devon Still of Penn State and WR Marvin Jones of California.
Still (6-5, 305) was a second-round choice, 53rd overall. He was a first-team Associated Press All-American last season and also was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year while serving as a Nittany Lions co-captain. Over his final two Penn State seasons, he had 8.5 sacks and 27.0 tackles-for-loss.
Jones (6-2, 200) was the second of three Bengals selections in the fifth round, 166th overall. Jones finished his four-year Cal career with 156 catches for 2270 yards and 13 touchdowns, and he burnished his draft stock with strong performances at the Senior Bowl and the NFL Scouting Combine.
The Bengals now have signed four of the club’s 10 draft choices. Previously signed were the team’s other two fifth-rounders, CB Shaun Prater of Iowa and S George Iloka of Boise State.
