Thirty-one other rooms let Kaleb Johnson slide, and the Bengals were the ones holding the card at the 148th overall pick. Highway robbery. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Bengals indulged a want in Barron while a need in cornerback, offensive lineman and other spots stayed open. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with tight end chief among the fixes.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
