Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Kinchens should have been long gone. The Bengals pounced, and earned a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kamren Kinchens, the No. 100 name on the board, stolen at No. 149. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Sundell reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at the 24th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick49 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson is a better player than pick No. 49 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick56 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at No. 56 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick80 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A wild overpay on Mekhi Wingo in the 80th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
By-the-book stuff, Ben Sinnott at pick 97 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalen McMillan in slot 115. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kamren Kinchens
Taking Kamren Kinchens in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jaden Crumedy
A reach on Jaden Crumedy in Round 6, Pick 19; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick214 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A real head-scratcher, Logan Lee in the 214th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
They talked themselves into Kendall Milton at slot 224, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick237 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
Fair-plus on Ryan Watts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
A big swing on Jalen Sundell at pick 238, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
