And 23 is quite a few.  This is probably the kind of area where more scouts might be worthwhile.

23 6th round Pro Bowlers from 2003-2018 isn't as much as you'd think, though. For instance, in the same time span there were 76 undrafted players who went on to be Pro Bowlers (which means the Bengals getting Burfict is still below the other team's average of 2.5).

Honestly in the ML era, outside of the first two rounds, they suck at getting Pro Bowlers. From 2003-2018 they got 3.

Geno Atkins
Kevin Huber
Ahmad Brooks (drafted him for the wrong defense)

The other 10 Pro Bowlers they drafted in the ML Era are all 1st and 2nd round picks, which made me ever more confused as to why they decided to hoard all of the comp picks.

In comparison to the Bengals getting 3 Pro Bowlers in the 3rd-7th rounds, the rest of the NFL in that time span got 161 (5.2 each).
