Why the Bengals drafted Cordell Volson

In an effort to fill the last vacancy of their offensive line, the Cincinnati Bengals added North Dakota State lineman Cordell Volson in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. They clearly had a type when doing so.

After playing over 60 games for the Bison, Volson carries a strong reputation and background with him into Cincinnati. It was his mental aptitude combined with his physical play-style that really encapsulated the Bengals in the Draft process.

Per Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic, Cincinnati took note of how Volson performed at the East-West Shrine Game and his Player Assessment Test score from the NFL Combine.
