Have you seen some of the defensive talent on this team? Seems to me the only busts we repeatedly get are when we draft OL in the early rounds. So it appears we are using FA to fill those holes. TBH, early-round picks on OL is high risk for anyone.

Bengals have struggled drafting both OL and DL for a while now. If you count the inconsistencies from Jonah Williams the last solid OL prospect the Bengals drafted was Clint Boling in 2011(Year 3 Volson depending). The last good DT the Bengals drafted was Geno Atkins (We can count Andrew Billings but he was not good in Cincy). They have done a little better at Edge with Carl Lawson & Sam Hubbard since Dunlap & MJ but the depth since Dunlap & MJ has not been there.
