Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB-
Skattebo should have been long gone. The Bengals pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Cam Skattebo slide, and the Bengals were the ones holding the card at No. 191. Highway robbery. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In No. 25 they get a premier pass rusher, and a steal at that.
Pick50 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in Round 2, Pick 18 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at slot 81 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in the 89th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick117 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick136 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Sampson at pick 136 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152 Rnd5 Carson Schwesinger
Circle this one: Carson Schwesinger at the 152nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick191 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
