Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bengals.

The Bengals put a flag in the ground for Tyler Onyedim, 55 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Getting Taaffe where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
By-the-book stuff, Spencer Fano at Round 1, Pick 10 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick41 Rnd2 Dontay Corleone
Dontay Corleone in No. 41 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Michael Taaffe
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Michael Taaffe in slot 110, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick189 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 189 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick199 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
A slide stopped in pick 199, with Oscar Delp worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 Tyler Onyedim
Tyler Onyedim at Round 7, Pick 5 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jaydn Ott
A reach on Jaydn Ott in pick No. 226; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
