The later in the rounds you go, the less likely you end up succeeding on offense/defense, especially as a rookie.
The Bengals really were banking on Hopkins to be healthy all year after they traded away Price.
And FWIW, Hopkins has played every game but one, he just wasn't very good the first half of the season.
To be fair, Hopkins hasnt been good all season. They've just been able to hide him better since the bye.
They either need to draft a center in the 1st round, although (ie Price) that's never a guarantee, or they need to pony up and pay for a center in FA., again of which the Bengals don't like to spend big money on the interior OL.
