Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall F
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureD-
The Bengals won the night they stopped Johnson from sliding. Grade: F.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bengals shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. It bottoms out at a F.

Landing Johnson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. Worthy has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with tight end still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
They jumped the gun on Brian Thomas Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick27 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Terrion Arnold at the Round 1 slot is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick42 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
A reach on Xavier Worthy in the 42nd overall pick; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They paid up for Kingsley Suamataia at Round 2, Pick 17 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick80 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They took Blake Corum at par in slot 80, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Nothing to complain about; Calen Bullock went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick97 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Michael Hall Jr. worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick188 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
They liked Steele Chambers enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 188. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in pick 194 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
A conviction pick on Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 214 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick237 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson in No. 237 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick238 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Evan Williams at Round 7, Pick 18 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
