This is largely revisionist history, as someone like Jones only had 10 INTs in an 11-year career as a starter, while Artrell had 9 in 6 years, was much more active with ball skills and was a decent run CB and managed 3 sacks on top of it.
Artrell was never a world-beater, but he wasn't a, "bad CB."
You might be right here. I know he was burned many a time, but I think he might have been the DB who won a game against Detroit by taking a Scott Mitchell (another Bengals gem) pick 90 something yards to the house for the game winning score.
EDIT:
Speaking of Bengals' gems, the Akili, Mitchell, Frerotte triumvirate deserve their own wing in this Ring. Frerotte's left handed pick is in HOF of Bengals' bungles.
