Aside from being outstanding Bengals receivers of course.
None of them was the first wide receiver selected by Cincinnati in his draft class.
David Verser was selected before Collinsworth in 1981, Chad Johnson was picked before Houshmandzadeh in 2001, and Mohamed Sanu was taken before Jones in 2012.
The Bengals doubled down at wide receiver again in this year’s draft and while they’re counting on first round pick John Ross to have a big impact, they also have high hopes for fourth round selection Josh Malone out of Tennessee.
