If the Bengals are able to get any trades for picks, it would make sense to push some as next year's selections.  The Texans first rounder in 2018?  Yes, please.  

Exactly, the 4 extra picks should be viewed as tools to move around, and put ourselves in position for the prospects we want, not as 4 extra potential players. I mean trying to keep 11 total draft picks is almost impossible, you're gonna end up trying to stash a good amount on the PS who could get scooped up by other teams.
