Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Bengals.

There is reaching, and then there is Myles Murphy at the Round 6 slot. The Bengals jumped the board by 32 and dared it to prove them wrong.

Landing Phillips that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 27 they get a ballhawk on the outside, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Value with a capital V on Jordan Morgan in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick80 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at Round 3, Pick 16 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in the 90th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick97 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
Steal is underselling it; Andru Phillips at slot 97 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick115 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
No drama and no debate, Johnny Wilson went about where he belonged in pick 115. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman at the 149th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
The board had Tahj Washington higher than pick No. 194, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick214 Rnd6 Myles Murphy
They left a pile of value on the table to take Myles Murphy this early at Round 6, Pick 39. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
A real head-scratcher, Kendall Milton in the 224th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick237 Rnd7 Nick Samac
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nick Samac. The roster fit checks out.
