Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named offensive lineman, a need the Bengals walked right past. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Makai Lemon. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick41 Rnd2 Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II in pick 41 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
A tidy little value on Kamari Ramsey in Round 3, Pick 8, a step better than break-even. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jack Endries
No drama and no debate, Jack Endries went about where he belonged in slot 110. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jaydn Ott
Jaydn Ott in No. 187 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick197 Rnd6 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226 Rnd7 TJ Hall
Good price on TJ Hall in the 226th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
