Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Bengals let Brooks fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

Somebody took the Bengals to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Brooks at that price is a win they earned.

Every board in the league had Green lower, and that gap is the story.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mike Green
In the 17th pick they get juice off the edge, even if it was a touch early. Need was not the driver here.
Pick49 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
They did well to land Colston Loveland in slot 49, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at the 81st overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 16, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tahj Brooks
They will replay Tahj Brooks at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick191 Rnd6 Willie Lampkin
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Willie Lampkin in pick 191, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
