The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bengals and Johnson: A-. The rest of the league will want that one back. Kaleb Johnson tumbling to the Bengals in the 135th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Bottom line, with Abdul Carter leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In pick No. 13 they get a double-digit-sack hope. More want than need.
Pick41
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
The board fumbled Walter Nolen all the way to the 41st overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick55
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at No. 55 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick135
Rnd4
Kaleb Johnson
They will replay Kaleb Johnson at Round 4, Pick 34 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187
Rnd6
Chris Paul Jr.
They robbed the room for Chris Paul Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
