Daddygaff DRAFTING FOR THEBengals
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB-
TradesB-
FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bengals for Farmer: B-. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Joshua Farmer, Round 5, Pick 15, roughly 32 picks past where he belonged.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. The Jackson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In slot 17 they get a ballhawk on the back end. More want than need.
Pick49
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
They jumped the gun on Alfred Collins, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81
Rnd3
Jared Ivey
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Ivey at the 81st pick, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick118
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
No edge and no loss on Luke Kandra in pick No. 118; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154
Rnd5
Joshua Farmer
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Joshua Farmer reach No. 154 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick195
Rnd6
Ja'Quinden Jackson
They paid a round early for Ja'Quinden Jackson in the Round 6 slot, more than the board wanted. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
