Larceny in slot 48 lands the Bengals a B+, Stone and all. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: David Stone, the No. 10 name on the board, stolen at the 48th overall pick.
That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Lacy pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with wide receiver still on the board. The veteran additions, Brian Branch chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
The Bailey reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick48
Rnd2
David Stone
Steal is underselling it; David Stone at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72
Rnd3
Sammy Brown
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 72, where Sammy Brown graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick79
Rnd3
Kewan Lacy
A want over a need in Round 3, Pick 15: Kewan Lacy adds a running back while wide receiver keeps waiting.
Pick146
Rnd5
CJ Bailey
They paid up for CJ Bailey at the 146th pick when waiting would have done the job. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick187
Rnd6
Coen Echols
Coen Echols slipping to the 187th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jaden Platt
A conviction pick on Jaden Platt at No. 197 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick226
Rnd7
Jay'Vion Cole
A straight-up fair deal on Jay'Vion Cole at slot 226, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
