Before that it was Whitworth in 2006.

So the Bengals have only drafted 2 1st Team All-Pros since they drafted Chad Johnson in 2001, 18 seasons ago.

I actually started making an All-Pro stat post along the lines of the Pro Bowl one, but it's much harder to do since All-Pro is an AP thing rather than an NFL thing. Then combine that with having to then research the players by year drafted, and make sure I don't count duplicates... it was more work than I was willing to put in right now.

You'll never convince some people the Bengals draft bad. They'll say Pro Bowls don't mean anything. Yada yada yada.

You can look at drafts that were total flops for the Bengals over the past 5 years too. Like the Ced and Fisher draft.
