Did Bengals get best of BB in day 2 trade?

"Just three picks before this trade, the Broncos paid a fourth-round pick and got back a sixth-rounder to move up five spots. Here, the Patriots dealt two fourth-rounders without getting anything back to move up eight spots and draft Alabama defensive tackle Christian Barmore.

Bottom line: The Bengals got Bill Belichick to pay up here, increasing the value of their original No. 38 pick by roughly 60%. With the picks acquired, Cincinnati selected offensive tackle Jackson Carman in the second round and then defensive tackle Tyler Shelvin and offensive tackle D'Ante Smith."

Thoughts? I know hard to see in next 2021 if a great move or a bad move us passing on 2 OT's who appear game ready in 2021. But, it appears we have 3 guys versus 1 who may become NFL starters at some point.

It will come down to how the those we passed work out verse what we got.. I thought it was a good trade for value, my biggest issue was more we waited till last pick of our three to go Oline again.. really was almost a 5th round pick... 

Remember when we traded back in 2018 in 1st round. we acquired Glenn and moved back to 21.  Across the board that looked like a good trade.. but Ragnow went right at #20 we picked Price at #21 which again was praised.. now we look back and it ended up not working out.. Glenn was hurt and Price did not work out.. Ragnow just signed a big 2nd contract...

Lets see how this one shacks out in a couple year to evaluate
