Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bengals came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. They banked enough surplus on Barron to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The Stefon Diggs deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
