Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB+
Nobody dealt better than the Bengals this weekend: B+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Thor Griffith in the 187th overall pick, a good 104 spots before the room expected him. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

Warren at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get juice off the edge, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Somehow Nick Emmanwori was still sitting there in pick 41, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick57 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They went early on Alfred Collins in pick No. 57, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
They barely believed it either: Omarion Hampton still on the board at the 75th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in No. 89 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach the 111th pick and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick147 Rnd5 David Bailey
David Bailey slipping to Round 5, Pick 9 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
