I can see the other guys not being...but a top 2 or 3? C'mon man. 

I agree that the pick at the top of the draft likely improves the team more than a couple other high, but lesser draft picks, especially when it's the Bengals doing the picking.  Hell, in recent memory, we've seen them take the #9 overall selection and search out the absolute bust among the class.

Only way I could possibly see them trading down from 3 was to a team who really wanted a QB, and was still giving us a top 10 pick + a lot of change in return.  Even then, I'm still "iffy" on the idea.

Why?  Because as it currently stands, we could have bookend Tackles for the rest of Joe Burrow's career, pick up the best pass rusher with #35, and then go back for the best interior OL at #67.  That would work a long way toward curing much of what was wrong with this Bengals team.
