Round 1, Pick 28 - Myles Murphy, EDGE, Clemson

Grade: B

On the depth chart, Myles Murphy entered his rookie year behind Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson. Yet, he showcased his undeniable potential whenever he had the chance.

Murphy has loads of potential, and his ability to pressure opposing quarterbacks will serve him well in the Cincinnati Bengals system.

Round 2, Pick 60 - DJ Turner, CB, Michigan

Grade: A

DJ Turner might be one of the steals of the Bengals' draft in the early days, and he looks like the real deal. The Michigan product has phenomenal athleticism, and opposing quarterbacks regularly avoid throwing the ball in his direction.

That's a stamp of approval for any rookie cornerback, and Turner will only get better with reps and experience.

Round 3, Pick 95 - Jordan Battle, S, Alabama

Grade: A+

It was a surprise when Jordan Battle slipped to Round 3 of the 2023 Draft. The Cincinnati Bengals didn't complain, though, and they snagged the Crimson Tide product in the third round.

Battle was phenomenal in his rookie season, and his tackling ability was a strength. Jordan Battle has made the starting job at safety his own, and he has a bright future ahead of him in Cincinnati.

Round 4, Pick 131 - Charlie Jones, WR, Purdue

Ad

Grade: D

It's hard to expect a rookie to ball out when he shares a wide receiver room with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd. Unfortunately, Charlie Jones was in that boat, and he was starved of targets in Year 1.

Round 5, Pick 163 - Chase Brown, RB, Illinois

Grade: B+

In his rookie season, Chase Brown brought something different to the Bengals running game. He'll get more touches moving forward now that Joe Mixon is gone.

Round 6, Pick 206 - Andrei Iosivas, WR, Princeton

Grade: C

Andrei Iosivas had the same issue as Charlie Jones. He was unlucky to be part of such a stacked wide receiver department.

Round 6, Pick 217 - Brad Robbins, P, Michigan

Grade: D-

The Bengals probably regret using their sixth-round pick on a punter. Brad Robbins tried his best, but unfortunately, he has a lot of work to do in Year 2.

Round 7, Pick 246 - DJ Ivey, CB, Miami

Ad

Grade: C-

DJ Ivey has performed well when given the chance to play. The problem is that he hardly gets the opportunity to do so.
