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

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named cornerback, a need the Bengals walked right past.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Elliott reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The roster is better shaped than it was, with tight end chief among the fixes.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 10 they get the heartbeat of the defense at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in the 41st overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jake Slaughter in slot 72. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane at pick 110 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Aamil Wagner
A quiet steal in the 189th pick: Aamil Wagner for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick199 Rnd6 Keyshaun Elliott
They reached a country mile for Keyshaun Elliott at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black in Round 7, Pick 5 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick226 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
By-the-book stuff, Miles Kitselman at pick No. 226 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
