Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bengals were there to profit. Jake Majors, the No. 96 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 191st overall pick. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The Tank Dell pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.
