I expect the Bengals to move on from Pratt in some fashion. Maybe traded for an extra pick, pick swap, or something. It would be my guess he’s done with us and we him. I expect a linebacker or guard first round & second round. Trey’s situation dicey. Needing to replace him this year could change all that. They got tired of musical chairs at TE and I believe they have guards too.
The Bengals succinctly and ridiculously have to do better in the draft. Right now that’s why they are barely above .500 the last 2 years. Sure Joe’s injury in ‘23 was a killer. But they’ve drafted poorly in the first 3 rounds the last 4 years. Mostly miss.
‘21 Chase Carman Ossai
‘22 Hill CTB Carter
‘23 Murphry Turner Battle
‘24 Mims Jenkins Burton
Out of 12 picks 2 were nailed and the others unlikely second contract offers. It’s awful. Sure some have been contributors or some starts but marginal what was needed.

Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
