Interesting article about past expectations - BengalFanInNJ - 04-27-2017
This link below shows actual vs. expected draft value for each team and you can compare two teams to each other. Pretty interesting reading. The 1999 Bengals draft was the worst according to there calculations with the 1998 New England Patriot draft being the worst of all time (compared to expectations).

good read

Of note: 3 of our past 4 drafts have been bad...and the 4th is ranked good because of Hill and Bodine.
Kirkpatrick, Dennard, Hill, Andre Smith, and Hunt are all busts on this chart compared to where they were drafted.

Scroll about halfway down and you see that since 1996...we've been in the bottom 5 of drafting for expected value vs actual value:
