Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Bengals: B-.

Nobody had Justice Haynes this high, and it is not close. The Bengals reached 48 spots to get him at pick 160. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Simmons steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Trey'Dez Green
In No. 23 they get a red-zone target to build around at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick54 Rnd2 PJ Williams
PJ Williams at pick 54 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jaylen McClain
They jumped the gun on Jaylen McClain, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick99 Rnd3 Zeke Berry
They took Zeke Berry at par in Round 3, Pick 35, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Austin Simmons
The board fumbled Austin Simmons all the way to slot 123, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160 Rnd5 Justice Haynes
Justice Haynes at pick No. 160 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
