Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall A-
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bengals let Stewart fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-.

When a board-topper like Josaiah Stewart slides to Round 6, Pick 17, you do not overthink it, and the Bengals did not.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Travis Hunter
The board fumbled Travis Hunter all the way to the 34th pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick49 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty in slot 49 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick81 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
They barely believed it either: Kenneth Grant still on the board at the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick118 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
Steal is underselling it; Wyatt Milum at Round 4, Pick 17 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 154, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart at No. 195 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
