We should’ve went OL


That was a bad pick period


and crazy part is i think Higgy is a good player

But we had a NEED at OL and ignored it for a 5th string WR

While OL was a need, that was considered a bad OL draft class.
The first OL didn't go until pick 20, and only two OL went in the 1st round (Bolles, Ramczyk).

With that said, both of the OL drafted in the 1st round have been solid (Bolles) or better (Ramczyk), but both were considered a reach at the time of the draft. Not to mention the Bengals were also still expecting (hoping) Ogbuehi and/or Fisher would become a quality starter at that point.

I agree with you though, WR wasn't a need, but I think the more logical move at the time would have been Howard (TE), Lattimore (CB), Hooker (S), or Barnett (DE). All have been way better than Ross at this point.
