The 2026 NFL Draft has finally arrived, and for the Cincinnati Bengals, it will be one that the franchise has never seen before.
That’s because the Bengals traded away the 10th overall pick for New York Giants defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence. While it was a great move, it does leave the Bengals without a first round pick for the first time since 1989.
That means the Bengals’ first selection will be No. 41 overall in Round 2, though there’s always a chance the team could trade up toward the end of
Round 1.
For now, the Bengals enter the draft with seven total selections, two being in the sixth round and two more in the seventh round. This needs to be a productive class that helps this team get over the hump and back into the playoffs after missing the postseason for three straight seasons.
