Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in No. 190 lands the Bengals a B, Perkins Jr. and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Harold Perkins Jr. got past him. The Bengals do not have to explain a thing at pick 190. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Tre Harris
In pick No. 13 they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
They took Derrick Harmon at par in pick 44, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick78 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick114 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in Round 4, Pick 13 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaeden Roberts. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick190 Rnd6 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. in No. 190 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
