Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC
The Bengals worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The Collin Oliver pick is the one that will follow the Bengals into the fall. They took him 95 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Landing Judkins that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mason Graham
Mason Graham slid further than he should have, and pick 17 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 38th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick81 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Tyler Warren in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick97 Rnd3 Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles is a better player than slot 97 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick118 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They barely believed it either: Andrew Mukuba still on the board at the 118th overall pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in pick No. 152 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
They will replay Quinshon Judkins at slot 154 for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Collin Oliver well ahead of where he belonged. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick242 Rnd7 Will Lee III
Will Lee III at pick 242 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
