Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bengals for Majors: B.

The Bengals spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jake Majors, the No. 92 name on the board, in pick 152.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 17 they get a go-to option on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A tidy bit of business in the 49th pick, where Jihaad Campbell graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick81 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
They will replay Xavier Watts at the 81st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick117 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
Steal is underselling it; Quinshon Judkins at slot 117 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to pick No. 152, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at pick 191 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
