Do you trust FO to draft well?

But if they Bengals made that type of pick (could be a lot of other stretch choices), do you trust their critiques versus your own and experts?

In that case my answer is no I don't trust them if they're taking guys 1-2 rounds earlier than they are expected to go.

The Bengals don't have enough of a scouting department for them to act like they're significantly smarter than the rest of the NFL. Their drafting is generally at it's worst when they do that. Reaching for guys expected to go in later rounds because they think they know better is how they get Billy Prices, Drew Samples, and Jackson Carmans. When they follow the consensus picks is when it seems they do better.
