Grade: C-
Czar's breakdown: The Bengals apparently took nothing but good guys in this draft. First pick Leon Hall of Michigan was a solid choice, although some teams are worried about his single coverage skills. RB Kenny Irons averaged 4.9 yards a carry over his last two seasons at Auburn and will be a solid backup to Rudi Johnson. Irons a is very physical between the tackles kind of runner. FS Marvin White of TCU has a chance and Nevada QB Jeff Rowe has the physical tools, but was inconsistent as a player. Rowe was ranked by most teams as the seventh-best quarterback in this draft. The Bengals closed the seventh round by taking two players from Notre Dame. Offensive lineman Dan Santucci, who had 25 consecutive starts for the Irish and is considered a tough over-achiever. Santucci has a chance to play all three interior positions. Safety Nedu Ndukwe had 98 tackles this season. Fox Sports http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/6746812
