Boards are made to be trusted, and the Bengals shredded theirs for Sonny Styles. He came off 26 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with linebacker the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.
