Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bengals and Winston Jr.: B-.

The Bengals did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kevin Winston Jr. fell into No. 152.

The Morrison reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In the 17th pick they get a sticky cover corner, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They paid a round early for Alfred Collins in No. 49, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They went early on Jake Majors in pick 81, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at slot 117 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jack Kiser in Round 6, Pick 16. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
