Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bengals, and a B- to prove it.

Some picks age like wine; Blake Watson at the 196th pick will need to, sitting 38 spots clear of his grade.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Landing Cypress II that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II in the 49th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick80 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in pick No. 80 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
A tidy little value on Cooper Beebe in the 115th pick, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick151 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They paid sticker price for Ben Sinnott in No. 151, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick173 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
A straight-up fair deal on Josh Proctor at pick 173, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick196 Rnd6 Blake Watson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Watson in the 196th pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick238 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II at the Round 7 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 254 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
