Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bengals.

The Bengals looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Eyabi Okie-Anoma at pick 224 regardless, 59 picks early. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Ali.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with tight end the one that mattered most.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick49 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at slot 49 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick80 Rnd3 Austin Booker
They did well to land Austin Booker in Round 3, Pick 16, just ahead of his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick97 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Fisher this early at the 97th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick115 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A premium they did not need to pay, Ben Sinnott a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 Anthony Gould
A reasonable price with a little left over, Anthony Gould in No. 149. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Dominique Hampton
Dominique Hampton at pick 194 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick214 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali slid further than he should have, and the 214th pick is lovely value for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
Pick224 Rnd7 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
Eyabi Okie-Anoma at Round 7, Pick 4 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
They liked Jalen Sundell enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 7 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick238 Rnd7 Khalid Duke
Khalid Duke in pick No. 238 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
