Andrew Dockerill Mock Draft 2024 5.0: The 100 Mocks

The mock finale is here! With a little streamlining, this year we will just dive into the Bengals’ day-one and day-two selections. This mock involves little more from me than clicking the draft button and recording a lot of data in an Excel format as we use the simulators from across the likes of PFF, Fanspeak, ProFootballNetwork and more to get a nice wide pool of big boards. With that, let’s begin! All graphs are shown in pick frequency descending order.

Andrew Dockerill Mock Draft 2024 4.0: The Dream

Up until this point, we’ve conducted our mock drafts using strict parameters: from those players from the Senior Bowl only, or post-Combine or post-Free Agency. Now, with less than a week to go until the NFL Draft, the shackles are off. We’re choosing who we like, when we like; including the player we really want the Bengals to have a look at. We call it… The Dream.

Bengals UK Pub Of Honour – 2024 inductees

Our alternative to the Bengals’ hallowed Ring Of Honor, our Pub Of Honour was created to celebrate those people, moments and experiences that sometimes happen off the radar but chime with the fanbase. They could be something funny, ridiculous and/or poignant or moving. This is the third year we’ve opened the door to our pub – a virtual space called The Who Dey Arms – so get yourself a pint, a bag of dry roast and settle in… we’re about to reveal this year’s inductees.

Andrew Dockerill Mock Draft 2024 2.0: Post-Combine special

Our next mock is purely comprised of those who showed out at the recent NFL Scouting Combine this past week. There was certainly a lot of choice for the Bengals at the top, with the early offensive line and cornerback prospects particularly showing out. But who did we go for?

Andrew Dockerill Mock Draft 2024 1.0: Senior Bowl special

It’s that time of year again. How has it come around so quickly? The in-between period between the championship games and the Super Bowl (Editor’s note: the perineum of the football season?) means that some of the nation’s top prospects once again took to the field in Mobile for the annual Senior Bowl. When you look at the Bengals’ drafting strategies in recent years, the Senior Bowl is crucial in figuring out who the team might have its eye on – it sends a large delegation down to Alabama (including Katie B!) and tends to pick players who appear and play during the week.

So without further ado, let’s start this year’s draft season. We start our mocks with our annual Senior Bowl Special- drafting only players who were at the Senior Bowl.

Cincinnati Bengals 2023 draft regraded

Well, that was quick. The season is now over for the Cincinnati Bengals, and it was a season that played out like a rollercoaster ride – Burrow’s injury, Burrow’s renaissance and then Burrow’s ultimately season-ending injury. But we also got fine seasons from Jake Browning, Trey Hendrickson and Ja’marr Chase. We also got some real use out of the 2023 draft class, with each one gaining significant playing time. So what do we think of them now the season is over?
