Since thr Bengals eschew big free agent signings they are more likely to hold on to their draft picks, but that does not mean they will never trade up. They have done it before.
Go back and read his post. He said that's what the Steelers did this year and wondered if the Bengals would be willing to do that next year.
The Bengals traded up in later rounds. Not for a 1st or 2nd round impact player.
The Bengals have a pretty strong track record of staying put or moving back, but not much of one moving up to target a specific player/need.
They've done it in the past...but i don't recall Marv doing it much, if at all.
