Bengals: Joe Burrow already providing dividends in Cincinnati

The 2020 NFL Draft is a little less than a month away, but the anticipation of the Cincinnati Bengals selecting Joe Burrow looks to have provided a bump to the organization that few might have anticipated. For fans, it was a pleasant surprise in what could result in a groundbreaking kind of offseason.

The names are significant, especially for a team who seemed a whole of bad on defense. Beginning with players like D.J. Reader, Trae Waynes, Mackensie Alexander, Josh Bynes, and Vonn Bell, the Bengals made a worthwhile attempt at shoring up a defense that looked slow and ineffective.
