Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA FutureB
The Bengals fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Bengals spent the 254th overall pick on Isaiah Davis, a name most had 45 spots down the list. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick49 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa in the 49th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
They took McKinnley Jackson at par in pick No. 81, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tory Horton
A clean, defensible pick in slot 117 with a little surplus value in Tory Horton. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
A reach on Ben Sinnott in Round 5, Pick 18; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
A straight-up fair deal on Lathan Ransom at the 173rd pick, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick195 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
They liked Oronde Gadsden II enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 6, Pick 20. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
They paid sticker price for Reuben Fatheree II in the 238th overall pick, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at pick 244 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick254 Rnd7 Isaiah Davis
They reached a country mile for Isaiah Davis at the 254th pick, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
