The Cincinnati Bengals will head into the 2026 NFL Draft with eight total picks, none of which are compensatory picks awarded from free agents lost last year.
With that, we now know when each Bengals selection is in the upcoming draft now that compensatory picks are factored in for other teams.
Here are the Bengals’ picks from the upcoming draft.
Bengals Draft Picks 2026

The extra seventh-round pick is from the Bengals’ trade with the Dallas Cowboys for Logan Wilson. And Cincinnati lost its fifth-round pick and gained a sixth-round pick in the trade with the Cleveland Browns to acquire Joe Flacco.
The Bengals will have plenty of opportunities to add talent to the defense, though, if they continue to invest in projects with high athletic profiles but average production, the team may not take a significant step forward next season.
