The Bengals landed 6 players from the Top-150 on the final @pff big board. That’s a successful draft.

They had 7 of the first 150 picks. Every non-playoff team (before trades and the like) will have 5 of the top 150 picks.

That said, I am curious as to how their top 150 lists have performed in the past, preferably segmented into groupings. I feel like there's probably a huge difference in quality between their Top 30, Top 31-60, Top 61-90, Top 91-120, and Top 121-150 after 3 years in the league.

For instance, this is draft order, not PFF Top 150, but picks 91-150 (the final 2 of those 5 groupings) has produced 1 Pro Bowler in the last 3 drafts ('18-'20) and it was a Punter. Meanwhile the Top 30 picks have produced 18. (31-60 had 7, 61-90 had 5).

UDFAs (3) actually have more than the 91-150 double group's 1.

Does anyone know if PFF ever goes back and looks at their Top 150 a few years later to see how they did with their rankings?
