Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 49: the Bengals steal Warren and grade out a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Tyler Warren, the 49th overall pick, roughly 33 picks past where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Mills proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with tight end chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In No. 17 they get a bendy edge with upside. More want than need.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach the 49th overall pick and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick81 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tate Ratledge at pick No. 81 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills in pick 119 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick153 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore slid further than he should have, and the Round 5 slot is lovely value for the safety. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick193 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 17, with JJ Pegues worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
