Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Bengals.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Bengals shredded theirs for Carson Steele. He came off 98 spots early, and the room will hear about it. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Jones falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In No. 30 they get a ballhawk on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at pick No. 49 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick62 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at Round 2, Pick 30 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick80 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
The board had Patrick Paul higher than the Round 3 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick93 Rnd3 Renardo Green
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Renardo Green in the 93rd overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick97 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in slot 97, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick115 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Davis at slot 115 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They paid sticker price for Isaac Guerendo in the 130th pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
They went early on Jared Wiley in pick 149, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
They jumped the gun on Ryan Flournoy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick214 Rnd6 Myles Harden
A clean, defensible pick in No. 214 with a little surplus value in Myles Harden. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick224 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at Round 7, Pick 4 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick228 Rnd7 Carson Steele
A big swing on Carson Steele at the 228th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick237 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
A real head-scratcher, Hayden Hatten in pick No. 237 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Steal is underselling it; Garret Greenfield at the 238th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
