Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bengals a B-.

The Bengals clearly saw something nobody else did in Jayden Higgins, taking him 53 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get juice off the edge at fair value.
Pick43 Rnd2 Malachi Moore
The board fumbled Malachi Moore all the way to No. 43, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the 75th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at the 112th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
