After going with some pretty well-known names over the 2022 NFL draft’s first three rounds, the Cincinnati Bengals decided to dip into the relatively unknown column in the fourth round with Cordell Volson, an offensive lineman out of North Dakota State.
Just because he’s not a popular name doesn’t mean Volson is necessarily a bad pick, though.
In fact, it’s not too hard to see why the Bengals like Volson. He’s experienced (24 years old over the summer with 65 appearances), a leader (captain and First team All-MVFC selection), big (6’6″ and 315 pounds) and has played a handful of different spots on the line, which includes filling in at left tackle in place of 2021 second-round pick Dillon Radunz.
