It predicts an extra 3, 5 and 7

I don't always agree with not going after one or 2 big name free agents every 3 to 5 years, but definitely a way to keep our team young and fresh getting extra picks each year while also helping to manage the cap.

Until the Bengals actually hit on some of these comp picks, there will still be criticism of allowing the proven players walk for the sake of a mid-late round pick in next year's draft.
IIRC, none of their comp picks in the past have ever panned out.
