The Bengals let Egbuka fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-. The board owed the Bengals one, and it paid up: Emeka Egbuka, the No. 28 name on the board, sitting there at the 65th overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Frazier reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick34
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to Round 2, Pick 2, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick55
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
Taking Derrick Harmon in the 55th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick65
Rnd3
Emeka Egbuka
They robbed the room for Emeka Egbuka here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81
Rnd3
Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams is a better player than slot 81 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick99
Rnd3
Miles Frazier
A premium they did not need to pay, Miles Frazier a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emery Jones Jr.. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153
Rnd5
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
No edge and no loss on Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick208
Rnd6
JJ Pegues
They barely believed it either: JJ Pegues still on the board at the 208th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick236
Rnd7
Kyle Monangai
Kyle Monangai in pick No. 236 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Cam Horsley
They took Cam Horsley at par in the 241st pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
