Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Bengals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Bengals took Davin Vann a full 63 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The Tuten pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 30 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at No. 49 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kyle Kennard well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick81 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They went early on Jared Wilson in Round 3, Pick 21, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jacob Parrish. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans slipping to pick No. 153 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick193 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Circle this one: Bhayshul Tuten at pick 193 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
They did well to land Jason Marshall Jr. in the 206th pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick208 Rnd6 Davin Vann
This one needs a full-page explanation: Davin Vann in No. 208, miles early. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
