Big Daddy Wilkenson and Devon Still are Defensive Tackles drafted in the 1st and 2nd round. By no means should this stop the Bengals from drafting the position early (Malcolm Brown fan last year myself) but I do think those past failures and the success of 4th round players like Geno Atkins and Domato Peko and they are hoping Marcus Hardison make the mid rounds of the draft the most comfortable and likely spot they will draft Defensive Tackles for the foreseeable future. I fully expect that no matter who is re-signed or not re-signed that the Bengals won't draft a Defensive Tackle until the 3rd or 4th round at the earliest.
