Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Jackson should have been long gone. The Bengals pounced, and earned a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Donovan Jackson had no business being available in pick No. 112, and the Bengals did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick 8 they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
By-the-book stuff, Wyatt Milum at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jay Higgins
A straight-up fair deal on Jay Higgins at the 76th pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They barely believed it either: Donovan Jackson still on the board at No. 112. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at pick No. 148 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick184 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
The board had Hunter Wohler higher than slot 184, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick222 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing De'Corian Clark in the 222nd overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
