Breaking down the options for the Bengals in the 2021 NFL Draft

The top of the 2021 NFL Draft class is littered with highly touted quarterback prospects, and the Cincinnati Bengals could be a huge beneficiary. They already have their quarterback of the future in place with Joe Burrow, who put together a solid rookie season before tearing his ACL and MCL in Week 11 against the Washington Football Team.

Right now, quarterbacks are locks to be the first three picks in the draft and that number could jump to four depending on what the Falcons decide to do with their pick. That means the Bengals will have their pick of the top non-QB prospects. It’s a good spot to be in.

Or, maybe, the Bengals will trade down and grab one of those non-QB prospects later in the first round. The point is, Cincinnati has options. Here are the three most likely options for the Bengals as they try to get back to looking like a real organization.
