It would likely be Westerman. This team is not only hamstrung by the Tackle position on the OL, but they also need a starting RG, as well.

That's just one of those things that Mike has dug his heels in on, and it won't change til he's gone. He wants to win, but he wants to win "his way".

There are currently 57 players on NFL rosters drafted by the #Bengals.

That is the most produced by any team in the NFL.
Baltimore/NewEngland/
San Francisco/Seattle are tied for 2nd with 44 players.
How many of those players are on our roster? Because I'm not sure being on the roster of a 6-10 team is a big accomplishment.
Also, quality >>> quantity. How many pro-bowlers or all-pro's have we drafted in comparison to other teams?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
