The Cincinnati Bengals’ hopes of securing a compensatory pick in the 2022 NFL Draft comes down to the continued performance of their first-round pick from 2017.
John Ross, now with the New York Giants, has done just fine for his new team. He’s played just over 200 snaps as a complementary receiver, and he’s been productive when the ball has been thrown his way.
Ross has played just over 25% of the Giants’ offensive snaps thus far. Even if he doesn’t continue that pace, his contract should be enough to net the Bengals a compensatory pick, per OverTheCap.
