How the mighty have fallen...

Teams will go through peaks and valleys eventually. Some teams will have higher peaks and/or valleys than others.

Bengals' biggest reason for downfall is missing on OL draft picks in the past 5 years and having their talented OL leaving in FA.
They also haven't prioritized LB as well as most think it should be and haven't landed a quality starting LB in the draft for over 10 years.
I would say I have confidence Pratt can become one but I also thought Dawson and Porter were good picks haha.
