Get to Know the Bengals' 2022 Draft Class
The Bengals added six new faces to the team during the 2022 NFL Draft. It was the first time since 1998 that Cincinnati drafted three defensive players in the first three rounds.
A defensive heavy draft was a result of the team addressing their weaknesses on offense in free agency. They signed veterans Alex Cappa, Ted Karras, La’el Collins, and Hayden Hurst. The previous two offseasons for the Bengals had been opposite; defensively focused in free agency while adding the offensive weapons via the draft.
Versatility is the theme of this draft for Cincinnati. The Bengals front office and coaching staff went all-in on players that could play multiple roles within their position groups pivotal for depth and their quest to get back to the Super Bowl.
