[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

I read it could be as little as two games, but as much as 6 (or eight?). 

The few mocks I gave seen where we trade up all involved the Jags at #24. If there is a team who might be interested in Jonah, this is them. 

FWIW, trade value: 

Jags #24 = 740 + Jags #121 = 52. 740 + 52 = 792. 
Bengals #28 = 660. Bengals #92 = 132. 660 + 132 = 792. 

That is bang on trade value. And that is without including Jonah. He is likely a Rd3 compensatory pick if he walks next year, I have to think we at oeast get that in a trade for it to be worth it for us. 3rd Rd comp picks values at 92-116. 

Jags #56 = 340. Bengals #62 = 300. Diff = 40. 
Jags have two 4ths, #121 is worth 52. 40 + 52 is 92.  

92 is a 3rd round compensatory value. Albeit the lowest. Jags have 3 6ths if you want to spice it up more, or if Jax would rather keep #121 and deal #127, worth 45, instead. Throw in #185 (15.8), #202 (9), or #208 (6.6) to make up the difference. 

With Jonah low 3rd value, it would look like: .....

Jags: Jonah, #28, #62 
Bengals: #24, #60, #121 (or #127 + #185/#1292/#206). 

I think those are fair trades. We'd need an OT early to do it, be it Rd 1 or, more likely, at #60 or #92  (Bergeron, Mauch, D. Jones, Freeland).
