Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall C+
ValueF NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC
The Bengals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a C+.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bengals would have aced it. Emmanuel Karnley at No. 198 is 300 spots clear of where he belonged.

That Fano pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In pick 30 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 PJ Williams
PJ Williams at the 41st overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick59 Rnd2 Mark Fletcher Jr.
They reached into another round for Mark Fletcher Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Dontay Corleone reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109 Rnd4 Zion Young
Zion Young in No. 109 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick149 Rnd5 Tree Babalade
Tree Babalade in Round 5, Pick 9 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick156 Rnd5 Spencer Fano
Spencer Fano at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick198 Rnd6 Emmanuel Karnley
They left a pile of value on the table to take Emmanuel Karnley this early at the 198th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jaren Kanak
Jaren Kanak slid further than he should have, and slot 222 is lovely value for the tight end. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
