Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesA FutureB
The Bengals won the night they stopped Singleton from sliding. Grade: A-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bengals were there to profit. Nicholas Singleton, the No. 99 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 192.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. The Desmond King II deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the 19th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell slipping to pick 49 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Somehow Xavier Watts was still sitting there in pick No. 81, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick118 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
A slide stopped in No. 118, with Luke Kandra worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick152 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Nicholas Singleton
They robbed the room for Nicholas Singleton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
