Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB
The Bengals won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The Bengals ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They banked enough surplus on Robertson to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The Bengals paired the rookies with proven help, Taylor Moton leading the way.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 10th pick they get a ballhawk on the back end, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jake Slaughter at slot 62. The roster fit checks out.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in No. 116 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
A slide stopped in pick 187, with Sawyer Robertson worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Antonio Kite
Antonio Kite slipping to Round 6, Pick 18 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick226 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
They took Riley Mahlman at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
