I also would not be unhappy if they traded the pick for 3-4 1st rounders and a few more 2-3 rounders and drafted someone like Herbert or Eason alter on. "
Same goes for trading Burrows for a huge draft haul. Bengals haven't done it when they could have and I don't see MB wanting so many rookies on scale at the same time. That would mean up to 7 high pick rookies coming off contract at the same time and potentially a few of them getting big bites of the salary cap at the same time. MB doesn't operate that way. For that reason I can't see a trade.
What I could see happening if they don't like Burrows as you don't is taking someone else, a trade down to number 2 or number 3.
Mike Brown did not like having huge rookie salaries on the old CBA, with huge signing bonuses..... Not so much anymore...
as far as the future?
the 1st, 2nd and 3rd rounders would be 1 to 2 years apart from each other....1st rounder 4 years, 5th year option, 2 and 3 3 or 4 years
