Also, to address #2, the bengals are batting pretty well at picking qbs lately. Palmer then dalton in the second.
They've batted well on QBs taken high, but not so much at grabbing these guys in later rounds... if people think they can find a backup with a late round pick hoping for him to bloom into a potential starter, I'm skeptical that it will pay off. A lot of people thought McCarron would be that guy and he's proven not to be.
I don't think I'd give up a high draft pick either... but I'd at least be looking into how high a pick we're really talking about here.
I'll also concede that even giving up a 2nd or 3rd rounder is a bit of a risk just because that's where the Bengals tend to do their best work.
