Really productive player. Sharp kid.

Every time I saw Penn State this past year, he showed up.

James Franklin may not have been a good game coach but he was a helluva recruiter.

Hopefully he learned from last year's intricate schemes that slowed the young ones ..

1.53 is top notch..

Can't see this guy getting past first 5 picks.

I see Reese and Styles as playmakers.

Reese can rush very effectively..

Styles as a cover backer among his overall traits.

Both good tacklers

They should be fine additions for a team.

I’ll be shocked if he gets out of the top 2.

He just needs force multipliers. I mean, don’t we all?

Potential Bengals Draft Target Posts Historically Low Measurable At 2026 NFL Combine

CINCINNATI — Potential Bengals draft option Rueben Bain measured in at the NFL Combine on Thursday, and his arm length turned some heads for the wrong reasons. 

The mauling Miami (FL) product has arms just below 31 inches long (30 inches, 7/8), which is a major historical outlier. Bain has the shortest arms for a fist round pick at edge in the last 20 years. No player with arms less than 31 inches has double-digit sacks in any NFL season for the last 20 seasons.

Oh I agree ..

Listed at 275.. no problem getting to 290.

This is nothing new but sometimes despite the measurements a player is just damn good.
