Draft Grade — Bengals
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB
The Bengals let Trapilo fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ozzy Trapilo had no business being available in pick 119, and the Bengals did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

If Gillotte pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In slot 20 they get a seam-stretching tight end. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Somehow Kenneth Grant was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
A premium they did not need to pay, Ashton Gillotte a notch or two before his time. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick119 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Taking Ozzy Trapilo in No. 119 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
No drama and no debate, Jacob Parrish went about where he belonged in pick 122. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick153 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
LeQuint Allen at pick No. 153 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick191 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at the 191st pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193 Rnd6 Clay Webb
They took Clay Webb at par in the 193rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick208 Rnd6 Ricky White III
A reach for Ricky White III in the Round 6 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick236 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
A tidy little value on Desmond Watson in the 236th pick, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick241 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
Cam Horsley in pick No. 241 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
