Drafted Starters

However, the one issue with having so many starters being drafted by the team also shows some stubbornness by the FO and coaches.

Most teams that advance in the playoffs have a really solid roster but go out and get a couple great FA starters to take them over the top. The Bengals have had the cap room to do this but continue to put (too much?) faith in their own players that they drafted and know the system.

There is definitely something to be said though of being able to maintain such a solid roster year after year though.

This is probably not the place for this but I read where the Bengals OL is rated (5th) below Ravens and Browns. Is the notion that the Bengals OL is so great, all hype?
