Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Bengals: B.

The Bengals looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Kyren Lacy at Round 3, Pick 11 regardless, 48 picks early.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Brailsford. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
The board fumbled James Pearce Jr. all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kyren Lacy
A big swing on Kyren Lacy at pick 75, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Circle this one: Barrett Carter at the 111th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
They robbed the room for Nicholas Singleton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick187 Rnd6 Parker Brailsford
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Parker Brailsford in slot 187, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
