Larceny in No. 154 lands the Bengals a B, Henderson and all.

Call it larceny. TreVeyon Henderson sat on the board until Round 5, Pick 15, and the Bengals did not need to be asked twice. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In No. 17 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at the Round 2 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick81 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Taking Alfred Collins in the 81st pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jack Bech
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jack Bech in pick 118, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at the 154th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach pick No. 195 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
