There’s only about 8 players with first round grades and even with reaches for QBs none will likely make it to the Bengals now. No help is coming in the draft. In any round. .
It’s not a great draft to be picking mid. Come April fans will see. Then I wonder how great they feel this streak was.
More fans actually believed this was a playoff team then I realized. Hard to hope MB and company remembered it wasn’t if fans don’t.
Did you look at the early season fluke type of losses? Both Balt games, KC,NE, and SD could have easily went our way. We only needed one of those. The defense was shite but began to play better down the stretch. The young DBs that didn't get injured gained some much needed experience. This is a playoff caliber team, without question.
We just beat two AFC playoff teams in the past couple of weeks. We gave another 3 playoff teams all that they could handle in KC, Balt, and SD.
I get you on the FO, I get that. Wtbs, Bates and Reader's leaving are the main two losses that they weren't able to mitigate via FA and the draft.
