Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals let Puni fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

When a board-topper like Dominick Puni slides to the 116th overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Bengals did not. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the Round 1 slot they get a seam-stretching tight end, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 49th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick80 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They barely believed it either: Christian Haynes still on the board at slot 80. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Circle this one: Dominick Puni at No. 116 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick148 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Value with a capital V on Nehemiah Pritchett in the 148th pick, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick175 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey slipping to Round 5, Pick 39 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
