Pick 41 – Target Range
Fit Summary
Chase Bisontis projects as a powerful, high-floor interior offensive lineman capable of stabilizing the guard position through play strength, anchor, and physical temperament.
With Round 1 complete, Bisontis stands out as a strong Day Two option who aligns with both value and immediate interior need at pick 41.
Why It Works for Cincinnati
· Play Strength & Anchor
Bisontis brings the core strength and anchor to hold up against interior power—reduces pocket collapse and stabilizes pass protection.
· Physical Run Presence
Moves defenders off the ball and creates displacement—adds a tone-setting element to the run game.
· Finishing Ability
Plays through the whistle with physicality—consistently looks to finish blocks.
· Interior Stability
Guards who can consistently hold their ground allow the offense to function cleaner—both in pass protection and inside run schemes.
· Plays Winning Football
Physical, competitive, and reliable—wins with strength, leverage, and effort.
Concerns (Contextual, Not Disqualifiers)
· Limited Range / Lateral Mobility
Not a high-level mover in space—best suited for gap/power concepts over wide-zone heavy systems.
· Pass Protection Refinement
Can rely on strength over technique at times—hand usage and consistency will need continued development.
Draft Range / Availability
· Likely Range: Round 2
· At Pick #41:
· Very realistic option early on Day Two
· Profiles as one of the better interior linemen available in this range
Final Verdict

Bottom Line
A powerful interior lineman with Bisontis’ strength, anchor, and physical presence is exactly the type of player you target early on Day Two.
