IF the Bengals reached, it's likely that Sample was viewed as a late-2nd or 3rd round value, and the Bengals saw him as a guy that fit what they're doing and didn't want to risk him not being there in the 3rd.
Different teams have different values for player not based on their skills, but the teams needs and scheme. Sample could have been a 5th/6th rounder for a lot of teams, but it only takes one or two teams to value him as a late second/early third round selection for the Bengals to miss out on him.
