This thread really got me thinking. I don't think the Bengals have drafted for a position of need or BPA in the first rounds since Jermaine Gresham. Instead, it has only been picks for insurance of upcoming Free Agents. This might be why I have been questioning every pick with the exceptions of Green & Zietler since. I could also argue those same 2nd round picks. I am thinking more of the same this year. If they draft OJ at TE, they have no intention of resigning Eifert, or with Foster at 9, no interest in resigning Burfict. Maybe they look at at DE or DT, not to replace Peko or MJ, but as insurance for not resigning Atkins or Dunlap. God I hate this cheap a$$ Front Office. I hope I am wrong & the Bengals draft pick makes sense this year, & maybe the Bengals will get a practice bubble instead of embarrassingly using UCs facilities, or maybe someday replace the smallest video scoreboards in the league.......
