Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals let Iheanachor fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

Call it larceny. Max Iheanachor sat on the board until Round 6, Pick 8, and the Bengals did not need to be asked twice. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. Job largely done: tight end settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get an enforcer at safety at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick41 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in pick No. 41 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick72 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in the 72nd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110 Rnd4 Justice Haynes
Fair-plus on Justice Haynes, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189 Rnd6 Max Iheanachor
They robbed the room for Max Iheanachor here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick199 Rnd6 Trinidad Chambliss
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Trinidad Chambliss at slot 199. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick226 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Miles Kitselman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
