Bengals First Draft Pick 2022: Betting Odds on Position Selection at Pick 31
The Cincinnati Bengals, coming off their Super Bowl appearance, hold the 31st pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. After addressing offensive line concerns through free agency signings, the team must now decide their draft priority.
Current betting odds from betJACK Training Camp:
- Offensive line: +170 (favorite)
- Defensive back: +230
- Defensive lineman: +230
Key Offseason Moves:
- Signed OT La'el Collins
- Signed OG Alex Cappa
- Signed C Ted Karras
Top Prospects Available at #31:
- Tyler Linderbaum (C, Iowa)
- Zion Johnson (OL, Boston College)
- Andrew Booth (CB, Clemson)
- Kaiir Elam (CB, Florida)
Analysis: The Bengals have two clear paths: further strengthen the offensive line to protect Joe Burrow or address defensive needs at cornerback. With Ted Karras' positional flexibility (played LG and C), the team has options for fitting in new talent.
Prediction: The Bengals will likely continue prioritizing offensive line protection by selecting a center with their first pick. This would provide additional depth and protection for franchise quarterback Joe Burrow while creating a more potent offense for 2022.
