Lewis convenes another season

[TKUHL]

I was just looking at some interesting yet disappointing numbers. It drives me nuts that our biggest needs are positions we A. have drafted the most of the past 5 years B. Others we have totally ignored. Marvin has NEVER drafted a DT, C, S or DE (I believe we played Pollack at LB) in the first round. I can understand the C position as some teams will wait till the 2nd or later. The C position is the only position that we have not addressed in the first 3 rounds the past 5 years, other than FB,P,K and QB. The highest a C has been drafted in the Marvin Lewis era is the 4th with three taken. One 3rd of Marvin's 1st round draft picks have been CB's with a total of 5, 3 in the past 5 years. We have only drafted 1 Safety and 1 OG in the first 3 rounds the past 5 years. This past draft pattern may not mean a damn thing but if he sticks with his trend we can see something like this.

1st CB
2nd RB
3rd LB/WR
4th DT
4th Comp-C
5th OG
5th Comp LB/S/WR
6th WR
6th Comp RB
7th WR/DE/CB

But if we go with the least selected position each round it will be something like this.

1st C/DT/LB
2nd TE/C/DE
3rd OT/OG/RB Marvin has never drafted these positions in the 3rd.
4th WR
5th DE/C
6th OL/DE Marvin has never drafted OL or DE in the 6th.
7th LB
