"As for the draft, it's near impossible to tell before free agency. If M. Jones comes back, that change the 'need' for WR. If A.Jones/Nelson/Iloka come back ... same can be said for the secondary. By talking to the staff this week, they like how deep the draft is on the defensive side of the ball.
But, my gut feel says M.Jones/G.Iloka get offers that the Bengals may not be willing to match/exceed with so many teams with so much cap room available. "
It's disappointing when the front office doesn't see the value in certain players that us the fans do. Oh well.
It becomes a problem when you create holes in your team that you use the draft to fill, instead of going into the 3 day process looking to find impact players to strengthen position groups instead of filling preventable holes.
This is probably the biggest factor on why some teams progress and some teams regress or worse, stay the same.
