Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bengals and Simpson: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jaylin Simpson tumbling to the Bengals in slot 173 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick No. 18 they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
No edge and no loss on Kris Jenkins in the 49th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick80 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They paid sticker price for Cooper Beebe in No. 80, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick115 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
A reasonable price with a little left over, Leonard Taylor III in the 115th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick151 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 151 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in Round 5, Pick 37 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196 Rnd6 Austin Stogner
Austin Stogner in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
