NOTE: Starting Monday, April 13 and running through April 23, the day the NFL Draft starts, Local12.com will be taking a position-by-position look at the Bengals’ draft needs and then doing a final Mock Draft. Each breakdown will include who is currently on the roster, what round the Bengals are likely to make a selection at that position group, some names associated with those rounds and the top five players at each position according to Dane Brugler of The Athletic.

CINCINNATI (WKRC) – After signing 41-year-old Joe Flacco and 40-year-old Josh Johnson this offseason it’s probably safe to say the Bengals will have the oldest quarterback room in the NFL this season, unless 27-year-old Sean Clifford beats out Johnson or the Bengals take a quarterback in this year’s draft.

With so many other needs and four quarterbacks already under contract (Joe Burrow is of course the other) it doesn’t seem likely the team will use a pick on this position.

Here is a look at the Bengals quarterback situation and what some of the draft class looks like:

On the roster: Joe Burrow, Joe Flacco, Josh Johnson, Sean Clifford

Likely round Bengals will select a quarterback: It’s unikely that they will use a draft pick on this position as it would only be to add competition for Johnson and Clifford for the No. 3 spot. If they do use a pick it would likely be in the sixth or seventh round where they have two selections in each round.

5 highest rated quarterbacks overall and round they are graded (according to TheAthletic.com) in parentheses:

1. Fernando Mendoza, Indiana (1st)2. Ty Simpson, Alabama (2nd)3. Garrett Nussmeier, LSU (3rd)4. Drew Allar, Penn State (3rd-4th)5. Cole Payton, North Dakota State (4th)

5 quarterbacks who could be available in sixth or seventh round (round they are graded according to TheAthletic.com in parentheses):

Cade Klubnik, Clemson (6th-7th)Haynes King, Georgia Tech (6th-7th)Joe Fagnano, UConn (7th)Joey Aguilar, Tennessee (7th)Sawyer Robertson, Baylor (7th)

The Skinny: Burrow will likely take every snap he is healthy to take and Flacco filled in admirably in the six games he started in place of Burrow last season.

This is considered one of the worst, if not the worst, quarterback draft classes in the history of the draft with only Mendoza having a first round grade, although there is growing belief that Simpson will go in the first round as well.

They are the only two quarterbacks with above a third round grade from The Athletic.

It’s possible any of the quarterbacks listed in the five who could be availble in the sixth or seventh round go undrafted, and if so, the 6-foot-3, 216-pound Robertson is an interesting prospect. He began his career at Mississippi State and spent the last three years at Baylor where this past season he ranked second in FBS in passing yards per game (306.8) and threw 31 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 504 attempts.
