Other teams, or, you know, the Bengals. Geno Atkins (4th), Shawn Williams (3rd), Clint Bolling (4th), and Kevin Huber (5th) are clear impact players that they drafted in those rounds. You can throw guys like Nick Vigil (3rd), Andrew Billings (4th), CJ Uzomah (5th), Sam Hubbard (3rd) and Carl Lawson (4th) into the pile as contributors they grabbed in those rounds as well. Or heck, count guys who've since left like Micheal Johnson (3rd), Domata Peko (4th), Marvin Jones (5th), and George Iloka (5th).
But I guess we can close our eyes and pretend like the Bengals never have any success in those middle rounds if you want. If only they could have the luck that all those other teams have!
