This is what happens to us year after year because of the team being overly hesitant to trade up. ESPECIALLY when you're picking at the bottom of rounds you can't passively sit there as by the time you come up you are reduced to hoping for value instead of addressing needs.

Absolutely. One can never have too much offensive line depth — especially in the AFC North.

Only JAX and maybe one other ahead of us looking for CB this round. Could have a pick of a few.

Bengals didnt get into trade up range until pick 50. To go higher than that would have cost their 3rd or multiple day 3 picks.
Unless Jonah goes which isnt going to happen today.

Or a WR. But, yes. I'd be happy with Stevenson.

There are still plenty of good players at positions of need available. I would guess that a bunch of the guys fans liked who already got picked weren’t even on their radar for the second round.

Take Kraft.
Apparently the foot injury was in 2021. The injury in spring of 2022 was coyly couched as a lower leg injury and seemed to have taken awhile to heal Then he left the Playoff game against the Buckeyes with an ankle injury. I was not able to find any specifics on the foot or "lower leg injury" though.
Fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy, dinosaurs had little chance to survive as a species.

Insider guy had the 8 as: Kraft, LaPorta, D. Jones, Bergeron, Brents, Ringo, & Scott & Mims.
Not our top 8. Torrence & Hyatt have to be surprises they are still there.

Depth yes, bounce Volson for no reason no. Volson did well - look at thew season long trajectory and you see that by the time we got to the end of it he was playing at or slightly above league average. And this was with a LT playing injured who got beat inside constantly.

Certainly wouldn't be upset with a CB here, Ringo would be nice. Doubt Stevenson from Miami is still there at 60.

I'm not going to get into it with you, but the Bengal's have very rarely drafted on the backside of the draft. Just saying.

I read in the Columbus dispatch ZT was saying he is fine taking the best available at any position, b/c he thinks were loaded at every position, so I didn't expect him to trade to get that "One player he has to have."
