The only think that will sell more tickets is winning.
Some people are just obsessed with replacing Dalton.

There is local fans buying tickets interest and then there is National Media interest.
Drafting Kyler Murray would likely impact both to some degree but I think the National Media interest in the Bengals would Skyrocket if Kyler Murray was drafted. That could then help local ticket sales some.
The National Media would set up a Kyler Murray versus Baker Mayfield narrative in the AFC North and the Bengals could start to get better scheduling from the NFL for certain matchups they would want focused on Nationally.
Browns/Bengals - Mayfield versus Murray for example could be a Prime time affair in the eyes of the National Media/NFL.
