Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bengals turned the phones into found money: B.

The Bengals looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jared Wiley at pick 238 regardless, 52 picks early. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Dameon Pierce gives the group a proven body among the projects. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in Round 1, Pick 23 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick49 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at pick No. 49 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They talked themselves into Cooper Beebe at the 80th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick115 Rnd4 Max Melton
They paid sticker price for Max Melton in No. 115, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
The board had cheaper options than Jaheim Bell at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A wild overpay on Ty'Ron Hopper in pick 151, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan at No. 173 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick196 Rnd6 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter in Round 6, Pick 21 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at pick 238, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
A straight-up fair deal on Walter Rouse at pick No. 254, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
