Even after losing Le'veon Bell & especially Antonio Brown; they chose to Trade Up for Devin Bush.

They basically chose to target what they think of as a Star key defensive piece versus getting a larger volume of players.

I wonder if the Bengals would consider doing that in 2020 or will they feel that they have to stick with the volume of players approach.

The Bengals D may need some Star power added in 2020 yet other needs seem to always be hanging around.

That's a difficult decision honestly. I think it comes down to how confident are you that someone will guarantee to be a star for you and also whether you have many other needs that you can afford to reduce your number of picks to trade up.

I don't have high confidence Glenn becomes a Top 10 OT by the end of this year and Boling hits FA. I don't think it's out of the question that both could be gone to free up a good amount of cap space. Drafting another OT to go opposite of Williams and having Jordan or Westerman starting at LG in 2020 could work out well. This would also help if the Bengals were to take that saved cap space and put it toward proven players to bolster the defense.
