Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bengals: B.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Bengals did exactly that with Jack Pyburn in Round 7, Pick 5. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They banked enough surplus on Thieneman to cover a lot of smaller sins. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
A conviction pick on Lee Hunter at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Dillon Thieneman
Taking Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 76 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
A reach on Jude Bowry in pick 115; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Keyshaun Elliott
No edge and no loss on Keyshaun Elliott in No. 121; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189 Rnd6 Anez Cooper
Nothing to complain about; Anez Cooper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick199 Rnd6 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jack Pyburn
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jack Pyburn well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick226 Rnd7 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in No. 226 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick253 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson in slot 253 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
