Bengals consider drafting Daiyan Henley instead of Myles Murphy in re-draft
Summary

The Cincinnati Bengals reflect on their 2023 draft decisions, particularly the selection of Myles Murphy. As a re-draft exercise, CBS Sports suggests choosing linebacker Daiyan Henley over Murphy. The Bengals have struggled with linebacker play despite having Logan Wilson and others on the roster. Henley's development with the Los Angeles Chargers raises questions about how he might have fared on the Bengals' roster. Improving their draft hit rate is critical for the team moving forward.
