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

The Bengals did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tyren Montgomery fell into the 197th overall pick.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. Every board in the league had Jackson Jr. lower, and that gap is the story.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value.
Pick41 Rnd2 Chris Bell
Chris Bell at pick No. 41 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
They reached a country mile for Darrell Jackson Jr. at pick 72, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes is a better player than the 110th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Dalton Johnson
Dalton Johnson at No. 187 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick197 Rnd6 Tyren Montgomery
You do not let a wide receiver like Tyren Montgomery reach slot 197 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick226 Rnd7 Terion Stewart
They read the board right and Terion Stewart was the payoff at the Round 7 slot. It fills a real need, too.
