Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bengals a B-.

The Ben Sinnott selection is the head-turner. The Bengals reached 22 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Rosengarten.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 18th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid a round early for T'Vondre Sweat in Round 2, Pick 17, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick80 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 80 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick97 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at the 97th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
Somehow Roger Rosengarten was still sitting there in pick No. 115, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Elijah Jones in the Round 5 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dwight McGlothern at the 194th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick214 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick 214 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 KT Leveston
A tidy little value on KT Leveston in the 224th pick, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick237 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at slot 237 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
