Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Phillip Webb pick is the one that will follow the Bengals into the fall. They took him 142 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. However the rest shakes out, Graham at that price is a win they earned.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the 16th pick they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ashton Gillotte. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick81 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at pick 81 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Carson Vinson
A wild overpay on Carson Vinson in the 117th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick151 Rnd5 Phillip Webb
A real head-scratcher, Phillip Webb in Round 5, Pick 14 is miles ahead of his ranking. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at slot 192 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
