Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Bengals won the night they stopped Brooks from sliding. Grade: B.

The Bengals did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tahj Brooks fell into pick 191.

They are betting Kiser proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in slot 58 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick81 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker slid further than he should have, and the 81st overall pick is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jordan James
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Jordan James in No. 117, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jack Kiser
They reached a country mile for Jack Kiser at pick No. 126, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
They will replay Mason Taylor at pick 152 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick191 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Steal is underselling it; Tahj Brooks at the 191st pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
