Examples being Ogbuehi and Fisher. Bengals supposedly had both rated (high) in the 1st round, so they took what they believed to be BPA that just happened to cover a position of need.
From what most pundits have said, the strength of this draft class is WR, CB, and OL.
If the Bengals went Burrow and then followed with WR, OL, and CB, I'd totally get it, but I'd bet many would be frustrated that the Front 7 wasn't addressed earlier (barring actually addressing in FA with someone the fans believed was good).
Yeah, I was trying to post that one quick. I left out the part about having similar grades on all these guys. I always believe in going BPA.
That being said, with the depth at WR, I wouldn't take one at 33.
