Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals robbed the room for Fiske. Final grade: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Braden Fiske tumbling to the Bengals in the 115th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Reaching for Reiman left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a blindside protector, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
No drama and no debate, Kris Jenkins went about where he belonged in pick 49. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick80 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Malachi Corley in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick97 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
They paid a round early for Braelon Allen in the 97th overall pick, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick115 Rnd4 Braden Fiske
Circle this one: Braden Fiske at the 115th pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Tip Reiman
A wild overpay on Tip Reiman in pick No. 149, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick194 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Nothing to complain about; Cornelius Johnson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick214 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at slot 214 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick224 Rnd7 Delmar Glaze
They barely believed it either: Delmar Glaze still on the board at slot 224. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee slid further than he should have, and pick No. 237 is lovely value for the linebacker. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick238 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Good price on Trevin Wallace in the 238th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
