Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bengals robbed the room for Brooks. Final grade: B.

The Bengals did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tahj Brooks fell into Round 6, Pick 17.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Lampkin pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 17 they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick81 Rnd3 Deone Walker
They read the board right and Deone Walker was the payoff at the 81st overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to No. 133, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in Round 5, Pick 15 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick161 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at the 161st pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Somehow Tahj Brooks was still sitting there in slot 192, and they pounced on premier running back value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
