Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bengals a B+.

The tape said wait; the Bengals did not. Bub Means went at Round 6, Pick 33, a good 53 picks before the board was ready.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Lloyd pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 20 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
No drama and no debate, Ja'Tavion Sanders went about where he belonged in the 33rd pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick49 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at No. 49 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
No edge and no loss on Kiran Amegadjie in slot 65; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick80 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at the 80th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
Nothing to complain about; Brandon Dorlus went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick114 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
Quietly one of the better values of the day, MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 114. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick118 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
They paid a round early for Nehemiah Pritchett in the 118th pick, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick148 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tykee Smith. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick193 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
By-the-book stuff, Joe Milton III at pick 193 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick208 Rnd6 Bub Means
Bub Means at slot 208 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick214 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
Fair-plus on JD Bertrand, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
