Who are the 2 from previous seasons who fell out this year, were they injured or just surpassed by lower draft picks ?  I really don't know just curious. 

Seems to still support my argument though and the Bengals are not searching for a #1 WR which all these listed were ones in the league. 

Chase is going to get the targets in this town. 

No. Because that's 1 round alone vs 6 rounds accumulated (plus UDFAs).

There were 5 1st round and 31 2nd-7th round WRs in the 2021 draft.
There were 6 1st round and 29 2nd-7th round WRs in the 2020 draft.
There were 2 1st round and 26 2nd-7th round WRs in the 2019 draft.
There were 2 1st round and 31 2nd-7th round WRs in the 2018 draft.
There were 3 1st round and 29 2nd-7th round WRs in the 2017 draft.

So that's 5/10 coming from a pool of ~3.5 per year and 5/10 coming from a pool of ~29 per year. The Bengals aren't able to draft a WR in every single round 2-7 so that's not just as good of a chance, that's about 1/8th the chance more or less.
