The Cincinnati Bengals are coming off a season in which they finished 9-8 and missed the playoffs. Quarterback Joe Burrow played only 10 games this season, as his season ended in Week 11 due to a wrist injury.
The Bengals finished with the worst record in the AFC North and are gearing up for a comeback next season. The Kansas City Chiefs recently won the Super Bowl, and many believe that the Bengals with Burrow have the best chance of defeating them next season.
However, before the start of the new season, an important period awaits all the teams. The 2024 NFL Draft is less than two months away, and the Bengals need to draft well to become contenders again. What draft picks do they have for the upcoming draft? Let's take a look.

In the past few years, the Bengals have drafted pretty well with the likes of Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Evan McPherson, etc. The franchise will hope to find a similar level of players in the upcoming draft as well.
Who Could The Cincinnati Bengals Draft In The First Round?
The Bengals have the 18th overall pick in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. With this pick, they are expected to draft an offensive tackle, as the upcoming draft class is loaded with talented offensive linemen.
Tyler Guyton, Amarius Mims, or Troy Fautanu could be available at pick 18, and they would be an excellent fit for the team. With Jonah Williams set to enter free agency, the franchise can replace him right away with a solid player from the draft.
However, if the Bengals sign an offensive tackle in free agency, they may consider drafting another wide receiver. Tyler Boyd is set to hit free agency, and while the Bengals are expected to franchise tag Tee Higgins, the Clemson product may be traded or depart next season.
Wide receivers Keon Coleman, Troy Franklin, and Brian Thomas Jr. from LSU could be available at pick 18. All three receivers are extremely talented, and the AFC North franchise may add another LSU star to pair with Burrow and Chase.
I firmly believe BrIan Thomas Jr is a true 6’4.
And it’s that’s true, it makes everything even more impressive.
I’d be shocked if he’s not a top 25 pick in April…pic.twitter.com/Owts1jqeXw
