Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Anthony Lucas at pick No. 41. The Bengals jumped the board by 52 and dared it to prove them wrong. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. It is not that Sapp is a bad player; it is that the Bengals had louder needs to answer first.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In slot 10 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas at pick No. 41 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyreak Sapp
A surprising call. With cornerback, tight end and other spots still to address, they spent pick 72 on Tyreak Sapp, an edge rusher they were not short of.
Pick110 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
Value with a capital V on Chase Bisontis in No. 110, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick187 Rnd6 Bobby Jamison-Travis
Bobby Jamison-Travis at the 187th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick197 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
By-the-book stuff, Le'Veon Moss at Round 6, Pick 18 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
They paid up for Isaiah Jatta at the 226th pick when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
