This team barely can draft well in the 1-5 range let along 11-20. 

Btw if anyone hasnt seen the Pat McAfee clip today on the AFC North it's well worth checking out. 

Even as a Bengals fan, it's complete honesty and how Cincinnati football is viewed outside the lenses of the orange and black glasses.

Actually the Bengals have drafted really well when picking in the Top 5.
2001 - Justin Smith
2003 - Carson Palmer
2011 - AJ Green
2020 - Joe Burrow
2021 - Ja'Marr Chase

They seem to get worse the later in the 1st round they pick.
Probably because they start thinking too much and also less guarantee of who will be available.
