Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend 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 Nick Martin in the Round 6 slot.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Tight end was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In the 17th overall pick they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer at No. 49 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick81 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in slot 81 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick153 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at the 153rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick193 Rnd6 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at pick 193 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
