Total Grade: B- to C+
Best Pick: Jonah Williams
Worst Pick: Drew Sample, honorable mention, Rodney Anderson
Sleeper: Renell Wren
Rationale: The Bengals upgraded weaknesses at RT and LB, but arguably did nowhere near enough to solidify a putrid LB corps that will again be the weakest link on the defense. The team badly needs difference makers, and arguably only netted two (Williams and Pratt). Wren, Jordan, Williams, and Brown are intriguing. Sample, Finley, Davis, and Anderson feel like underwhelming picks.
As to the UDFA’s , I rather like the Stanley Wilson signing, and hope his Bengals experience ends better than the last Stanley Wilson. The Bengals could have used another WR to compete with an underachieving 3-5th WR group. Wilson may be that guy. He’s got good hands, tested well, and has produced with underwhelming QB play.
