For Cincinnati Bengals fans, the early stages of NFL free agency had many scratching their heads and wondering what the Bengals were thinking as multiple players on both sides of the ball left for other teams.

However, soon afterward, Duke Tobin and the Bengals' front office went to work, making a significant splash in signing left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. to add more protection for quarterback Joe Burrow.

More recently, the Bengals added another offensive lineman, Cody Ford, to go with safety Nick Scott, cornerback Sidney Jones IV, and tight end Irv Smith Jr., leaving Bengals fans excited about the team's direction as we count down the days to the 2023 NFL Draft.
