The Bengals should be actively exploring trades...

They will plug and play and keep all their picks. 

I agree with this take.  Historically, the Bengals value their draft capital very highly, even if they don't always draft wisely.  Heck, it's only been in the past few years that we've been able to enjoy seeing the Bengals being "major players" in free agency.  Which is likely why they held workouts for a few guys on the NFL's spare parts list, and we haven't heard a peep about any trade rumors.  (though I would have like to seen them get something of value out of Jesse Bates)

I predicted last week that Mike Thomas would likely be getting the majority of the snaps in the "Z" spot, when in 11 personnel while Chase is out.  I'm going to stand with my prediction.
