Major Outlet Gives Bengals 'B+' Grade For Amarius Mims Selection

Cincinnati has nine more picks to go this weekend.

CINCINNATI — The Athletic dropped grades for all 32 first-round picks in the 2024 NFL Draft and Cincinnati ended up with a B+ for the Amarius Mims pick.

The uncertainty around just eight career starts kept it from A territory.

"Mims might be the freakiest athlete in the entire draft," The story stated. The 6-7, 340-pounder has 36 1/8-inch arms, a near 87-inch wingspan, and 11 1/4-inch hands. He’s simply a massive human. He also runs like a tight end and can deliver a punch that will decleat anybody. His ceiling is more or less out of this world.

"His floor, however? That’s another conversation. Mims started just eight games over three years at Georgia, missing six last year with an ankle injury. A right tackle only in college, Mims still makes a ton of youthful mistakes with his eyes and feet and will fall off blocks far too easily. However, with time in an NFL system and the right offensive line coach, he could develop into a true star."

All eyes are on the Bengals coaching staff and its two veteran starting tackles to show Mims the ropes as he gets a start in the NFL.
