Do you trust FO to draft well?

They sprinted to the podium for Dre Kirkpatrick. They needed to buy their OL and secondary. I believe that they can draft well, have sometimes drafted well, and are exemplary in some areas. I don't especially trust their magic sauce - especially in the early rounds.

I trust them to draft WRs, and probably LB. That's about it so far.
I have 0 trust in their ability to draft (and/or groom) OL.
I would like to believe they'll be fine drafting DBs given Anarumo's previous experience and the Bengals had traditionally drafted good CBs in the Marvin regime too, but we haven't seen their DB prospects much yet. CTB and Dax Hill get their opportunity really this year.
Part of me wants to be optimistic about drafting a good RB and TE, but they haven't hit on a RB or TE since drafting Mixon in 2017.
We haven't seen any of their drafted DL pan out yet either, although Ossai took steps last year.
They've been heavily reliant on veterans in the trenches in the Taylor era, but you can't put so much toward those positions once you start paying big money to Burrow, Chase, and possibly Higgins.
