Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Simpson headlines a B- weekend for the Bengals.

The board owed the Bengals one, and it paid up: Kaytron Allen, the No. 101 name on the board, sitting there at pick 187 like a gift left on the doorstep.

Everything downstream of Ty Simpson depends on Ty Simpson, and the building knows it. The cost of the Capehart reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

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

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
By-the-book stuff, Ty Simpson at No. 10 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick41 Rnd2 Romello Height
No drama and no debate, Romello Height went about where he belonged in pick 41. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick72 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
They paid sticker price for Ja'Kobi Lane in pick 72, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart in the 110th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Kaytron Allen
Somehow Kaytron Allen was still sitting there in pick No. 187, and they pounced on premier running back value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick197 Rnd6 Noah Whittington
A real head-scratcher, Noah Whittington in Round 6, Pick 18 is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Brent Austin
They liked Brent Austin enough to skip the value, taking him in the 226th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
