Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The phones sank the Bengals this weekend: D.

The Bengals lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

Every board in the league had Jones lower, and that gap is the story. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
A straight-up fair deal on Rome Odunze at Round 1, Pick 10, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick49 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
By-the-book stuff, Braden Fiske at the 49th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul slipping to slot 80 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 111 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They paid sticker price for Sataoa Laumea in the 116th pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick123 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
They paid a round early for Theo Johnson in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kalen King
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kalen King in pick No. 148. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A reach on Jordan Jefferson in No. 175; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick196 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at slot 196 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. The roster fit checks out.
Pick235 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at the 235th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick252 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means in the 252nd pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
