deeleyryan DRAFTING FOR THEBengals
Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall
B-

FutureB-
The Bengals checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Bengals did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to tight end, which was the need that mattered most.
Scott falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Peter Woods
In the 10th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick41
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Fair-plus on Dillon Thieneman, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick72
Rnd3
Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in pick 72 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in slot 110 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
