Bengals slot five players in new top 100 rankings

Cincinnati Bengals stars have slotted well all offseason in rankings, be it positional charts or overall “top 100” lists.

The Bengals do so again in a top 100 list from CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco, starting right at the top with quarterback Joe Burrow at third overall. That puts him behind Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs and Josh Allen of the Bills, in that order.

Here’s how the Bengals chart as a whole:

  • No. 3: Joe Burrow
  • No. 16: Ja’Marr Chase
  • No. 79: Tee Higgins
  • No. 84: DJ Reader
  • No. 91: Trey Hendrickson

Fans won’t love that Burrow slots as the third quarterback, but it’s pretty hard to complain about having a top-five player at any position, let alone at the most important position in sports.

That said, Chase recently made it clear he thinks Burrow is the league’s top player, which set off a little back-and-forth with Patrick Mahomes across multiple social media posts.
