Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bengals and Wagner: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Aamil Wagner tumbling to the Bengals in the 187th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 10th overall pick they get the heartbeat of the defense. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Christen Miller at pick No. 41. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
They let Jake Slaughter come to them and pounced at slot 72. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
They will replay Treydan Stukes at pick 110 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Aamil Wagner
They barely believed it either: Aamil Wagner still on the board at No. 187. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Josh Cameron
A quiet steal in the 197th pick: Josh Cameron for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
The board had Isaiah Nwokobia higher than Round 7, Pick 10, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
