Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB
The Bengals cashed the board's mistake on Singleton: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Nicholas Singleton tumbling to the Bengals in slot 187 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The cost of the Parrish reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In the 11th pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in pick No. 41 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at slot 75 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 JT Tuimoloau
The board fumbled JT Tuimoloau all the way to No. 111, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick147 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dont'e Thornton Jr. this early at the 147th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187 Rnd6 Nicholas Singleton
A running back of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 12 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick244 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
Taking Xavier Nwankpa in pick 244 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
