Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureC
The Bengals cashed the board's mistake on Height: B+.

The board owed the Bengals one, and it paid up: Romello Height, the No. 40 name on the board, sitting there at slot 226 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

The Bengals paired the rookies with proven help, Marvin Harrison Jr. leading the way.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get an enforcer at safety. More want than need.
Pick32 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 32nd pick they get the heartbeat of the defense, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Mansoor Delane
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Mansoor Delane in slot 41, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jermod McCoy
Somehow Jermod McCoy was still sitting there in pick No. 72, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
You do not let a linebacker like Sonny Styles reach the 110th overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kenyon Sadiq
The board fumbled Kenyon Sadiq all the way to pick 189, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at No. 199 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick221 Rnd7 Chase Bisontis
Circle this one: Chase Bisontis at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Romello Height
They will replay Romello Height at the 226th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
