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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: J'Mari Taylor, the 199th pick, roughly 26 picks past where he belonged. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They will need Kite to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In pick 10 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
No edge and no loss on Elijah Sarratt in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick72 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. at the 72nd overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Genesis Smith
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Genesis Smith at No. 110. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick189 Rnd6 Antonio Kite
Antonio Kite at the 189th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 J'Mari Taylor
Circle this one: J'Mari Taylor at pick No. 199 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick226 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
No drama and no debate, Miles Kitselman went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 10. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
