Bengals Have Taken Opposite Approach As Steelers To CB Position

If there is any one team in the league that is virtually the polar opposite of the Pittsburgh Steelers when it comes to evaluating, valuing, and drafting for the cornerback position, it would have to be their division rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals.

Over the course of the past 10 draft classes leading into next week, the Bengals have used their top selection in the first round on a cornerback a total of four times. By way of comparison, the Steelers have drafted fewer than four cornerbacks in the top three rounds of the draft in that same span of time, including Senquez Golson in the second round last season, the other two being third-round picks.
