The Bengals checked most of the boxes and earned a B. Some picks age like wine; Jordan Jefferson at pick No. 151 will need to, sitting 26 spots clear of his grade.
That Rourke pick is the receipt they will wave around later. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in Round 1, Pick 27 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick49
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Worthy went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick50
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
No drama and no debate, Jackson Powers-Johnson went about where he belonged in the 50th overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89
Rnd3
Cade Stover
By-the-book stuff, Cade Stover at slot 89 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick115
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick133
Rnd4
Cam Hart
No edge and no loss on Cam Hart in No. 133; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140
Rnd5
Dylan Laube
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dylan Laube. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick151
Rnd5
Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at the 151st overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at No. 173 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick196
Rnd6
De'Corian Clark
A straight-up fair deal on De'Corian Clark at pick 196, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227
Rnd7
Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford slid further than he should have, and pick No. 227 is lovely value for the tight end. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick238
Rnd7
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the Round 7 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick254
Rnd7
Kurtis Rourke
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kurtis Rourke at the 254th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
