It doesn't get as much attention as the size of college scouting department for the draft, but the Bengals' scouting of pro personnel for free agency is awful.
Look at what the Eagles GM did the past couple of years. It's even more impressive considering he had to clean up Chip Kelly's mess. And he didn't go full Dan Synder during free agency which is always the Mike Brown's apologist go to argument to defend the "model model."

Oh, god. Chase Coffman. Where's OSUfan when you need a good laugh? Not as funny as his Luke Kueckly just doesn't have the it factor for a LBer he looks for pre-draft thread.

Some of those names were going to be the greatest thing since sliced Bengals flavored bread..
Coffman in particular was going to be the greatest pass catching TE in NFL history, but he was shot down by ex board members..

But, the reality is the 2017 Bengals sucked and Whitt would not have turned the 3 to 4 wins needed to make the playoffs. So, yep a 6th stinks, but better than keeping him and missing the playoffs so MB is really smart.
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.

But I'd say it's a fair bet very few become regular starters. And a tiny portion actually become true impact players ! Interesting question. Early on, 1994 era, there were 1st and 2nd round comp picks, so those are a bit harder to count because they were high picks. There is only one comp pick in the HoF and that is Larry Allen, who was a 2nd round and pick #46 overall by Dallas in 1994. Tom Brady was a 6th round comp pick and he'll be HoFer number 2. Here's a link which lists the top 18 most impactful comp picks. I guess they couldn't come up with 20. Most Impactful Comp Picks Considering there are 32 comp picks each year in today's game, 18 out of 32 x 23 (736) years is 2.45% that were impactful. 2.45% would be 1 out of every 48 or so. That's pretty sad. 2 out of 736 have been HoF quality, which is 0.27%. That would only be 1 HoFer by today's rules where the highest comp picks are 3rd rounders.

Hey we got an extra 5th rounder but folks are mad because they just cannot let things go.

I will say that Whit leaving probably is the only reason Alexander isnt here, which I think is a positive.

But to answer your question, I really do think I would let it go; but it has been shown time after time I have a different mentality than many here.

Might even get a new coat of wax and an AC recharge. Still plenty of money left over for FA dimner meetings at Wendy’s. Epic win for Mike!
