In some people's minds being a college free agent beats being a 7th round pick when in fact it really doesn't matter how a player gets into the league. The fact remains that there have been plenty of CFAs who have had much better careers than first overall picks..
I agree, the more picks you have, the better shot a team has at success. But, I think people get upset as it appears the team uses this method almost exclusively. Also, most teams miss on a ton of picks starting in round 3, it is a bot of a crap shoot and injury comes into play as well.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
