Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC-
The Bengals got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

The tape said wait; the Bengals did not. Will Putnam went at pick 254, a good 54 picks before the board was ready.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 4th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick22 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick 22 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick68 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
They will replay Quinyon Mitchell at Round 3, Pick 4 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Trey Benson
The board had Trey Benson higher than No. 80, and the running back fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick115 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Khyree Jackson in slot 115. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Malik Washington
Steal is underselling it; Malik Washington at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They did well to land Kitan Oladapo in Round 5, Pick 37, just ahead of his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick196 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in the 196th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick238 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at the Round 7 slot is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick254 Rnd7 Will Putnam
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Will Putnam well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
