And unless the Bengals get a late 1st or early 2nd out of a trade for Higgins, Sweat may not make it to 49, and 18 is arguably too early for him.

RT I think there will be some good option at 18 as plug-and-play if they choose to wait until draft for that spot.

That was meaning priority wise they need to focus on fixing those holes in FA over TE.  Yeah I've been saying in a few posts that we can't plan mocks around Sweat being there, or even starting a rookie at either spot.  They may win the job, but you need at least a below average starter off the market even if you think you're getting a gem in the draft.  I wouldn't rule out a trade for either DT spot, especially with the comp pick.
