FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Bengals. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Bengals did exactly that with Erick All in pick No. 149. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
Landing Fiske that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 30 they get a potential shutdown corner, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
A quiet steal in the 49th overall pick: Adonai Mitchell for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick62
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
Circle this one: T'Vondre Sweat at slot 62 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick80
Rnd3
Ruke Orhorhoro
The board had Ruke Orhorhoro higher than Round 3, Pick 16, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83
Rnd3
Braden Fiske
They robbed the room for Braden Fiske here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson in No. 93 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick97
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
A reach for Zak Zinter in the Round 3 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick115
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
No drama and no debate, Blake Fisher went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 15. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149
Rnd5
Erick All
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Erick All well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
