Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Bengals cashed the board's mistake on Tampa: D.

The Bengals did not so much draft Tommy Eichenberg as overpay for him, 30 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. However the rest shakes out, Tampa at that price is a win they earned.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 4th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in pick No. 49 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 8 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick80 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick90 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 90 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick97 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tyler Davis. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tommy Eichenberg in the 115th overall pick, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A tidy bit of business in slot 149, where Christian Jones graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
