Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Bengals.

The Bengals looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jalen Thompson at the Round 7 slot regardless, 59 picks early. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

They banked enough surplus on Abney II to cover a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a featured back, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
No drama and no debate, Sonny Styles went about where he belonged in the 40th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Value with a capital V on Darrell Jackson Jr. in pick No. 76, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in No. 161 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
A straight-up fair deal on Isaac Smith at slot 166, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. in the 189th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd6 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny in Round 6, Pick 17 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick225 Rnd7 James Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take James Smith this early at pick No. 225. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalen Thompson well ahead of where he belonged. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kelby Collins
Kelby Collins in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
