You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Bengals did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Green reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.
