Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals robbed the room for Johnson. Final grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Tez Johnson slide, and the Bengals were the ones holding the card at the 154th overall pick. Highway robbery.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. If Scourton pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
In the 17th overall pick they get juice off the edge, reach and all.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at Round 2, Pick 17 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 81 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at the 133rd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick154 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at slot 154 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick195 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
You do not let a running back like Ollie Gordon II reach pick 195 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
A conviction pick on Miles Frazier at No. 227 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick246 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Ricky White III in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
