Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Wease should have been long gone. The Bengals pounced, and earned a B-.

The Bengals spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Theo Wease, the No. 174 name on the board, in the 196th overall pick. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

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

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 18 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They paid sticker price for Ja'Tavion Sanders in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Trey Benson
No drama and no debate, Trey Benson went about where he belonged in the 80th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick115 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in pick 115 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Nothing to complain about; Jaylin Simpson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jasheen Davis
No edge and no loss on Jasheen Davis in the 173rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick196 Rnd6 Theo Wease
They will replay Theo Wease at pick No. 196 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at slot 238 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick254 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A reasonable price with a little left over, Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick 254. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
