The Tate Ratledge pick is the one that will follow the Bengals into the fall. They took him 23 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. The final tally is a middling C+.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.
