That’s a lot of premium picks. So I’m not sure where this boo hoo the poor defense narrative is coming from.
The reason they have spent so many premium picks on the defense is because they let a lot the better talent leave from the defense so they could save money to give to the offensive guys. Its also not like they havent used premium picks on the offense in the past 5 years either
Burrow - 1st round
Higgins - 2nd round
Chase - 1st round
Carman - 2nd round
Mims - 1st round
Burton - 3rd round
In the past 5 years the Bengals have spent just as many 1st and 2nd round draft picks on offense as they have defense, 5
