Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bengals: B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice interior defensive lineman is still a hole. The Bengals never got to the one that mattered most.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In pick No. 8 they get juice off the edge. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
They paid sticker price for Anthony Hill Jr. in No. 41, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72 Rnd3 Max Klare
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Max Klare. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at the 109th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick188 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson in slot 188 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198 Rnd6 Trey Moore
No edge and no loss on Trey Moore in the 198th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick222 Rnd7 Malik Hartford
A straight-up fair deal on Malik Hartford at pick 222, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
