Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC-
The Bengals bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

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

They are betting Chambers proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That Smith pick is the receipt they will wave around later. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 19 they get a home-run threat at receiver, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In slot 20 they get a wrecking ball inside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick21 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 21st overall pick they get a blindside protector at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jaylen Wright at No. 80. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at Round 3, Pick 34 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It fills a real need, too.
Pick115 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at the 115th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
They liked Nehemiah Pritchett enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 130. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They paid sticker price for Luke McCaffrey in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick184 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
A reach on Steele Chambers in No. 184; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick194 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All in the 194th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in Round 6, Pick 39 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
