Bengals' past draft pick mistakes haunt them in another list
The Cincinnati Bengals have what appears to be an underwhelming guard battle set to go down this summer during training camp.
As Bengals fans could have predicted, none of the team's guards come even close to making the annual top interior offensive linemen list from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

That list features droves of names the Bengals could have either drafted or otherwise acquired.
And it also features a former Bengals first-round pick.

Tucked outside of the top 10 and in the 'also getting votes' section is Kevin Zeitler, who will suit up for the Tennessee Titans in 2025.
Zeitler was Cincinnati's first-round pick in 2012 and pretty infamously never had a serious shot at a long-term extension with the Bengals, a team that undervalues his spot and probably only selected him because they happened to have two first-round picks that year (they used the other on corner Dre Kirkpatrick).

While former draft picks and misses pepper the list, the Bengals will go into camp with Cody Ford, Cordell Volson, rookie Dylan Fairchild and free-agent add Lucas Patrick scrapping it out for starting roles.
