Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals let Ford fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bengals watched Jaylan Ford slide 19 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Every board in the league had Wright lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick 18 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at Round 2, Pick 17 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
No edge and no loss on Jalen McMillan in slot 80; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James at the Round 4 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
They paid a round early for Jaylen Wright in pick No. 148, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Good price on Zion Tupuola-Fetui in No. 175, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Steal is underselling it; Jaylan Ford at the 196th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
