Steelers moved up in the first. Bengals moved up in later rounds.
He specifically said they targeted the LB in the 1st round, at the expense of volume and asked if the Bengals would be willing to do that.
I understand exactly what he said. I even quoted it for you.
If he had just asked if the Bengals would be willing to move up in the first round that would have been a legit question, but when he tried to claim that the Bengals were tied to some sort of "volume of picks" approach when they just REDUCED the volume of their picks I had to point out his error.
And to repeat my answer, since the Bengals eschew big free agent signings they are more likely to hold onto their draft picks, but they have traded up in the first round so they could certainly do it again.
