CINCINNATI — The EasySportz NFL expert released team-by-team draft grades for all 32 clubs, with the Cincinnati Bengals earning a solid B for a balanced 2026 class that added depth without major swings.
Cincinnati opened its draft with Cashius Howell in the second round, followed by Tacario Davis in the third, addressing athletic needs on defense and in the secondary.
The Bengals continued building on Day 3 with Connor Lew and Colbie Young in the fourth round, adding versatility and size to the roster.
Cincinnati closed its class with Brian Parker II in the sixth round and three seventh-round selections in Jack Endries and Landon Robinson.
The EasySportz analyst described the Bengals’ haul as steady and functional, noting that while the class lacks a true headline star, it fills multiple roster needs with developmental upside.
The report emphasized Cincinnati’s consistency across rounds, pointing to smart value picks rather than aggressive swings.
The B grade reflects a class that may not generate immediate buzz but should provide useful depth and competition moving forward.
Cincinnati enters the offseason with a solid, if unspectacular, draft class that fits its long-term roster-building approach.
