Trade down mock 2.0

Or are we supposed to expect Love to come in and at least match what AD did (wasn't much this past season, I doubt Love can do better). Plus, you forgot our oline is dog crap. At least one OL would have been nice. 

I'm not a fan. If Burrow isn't our guy, go Young at 1 and take a QB in round 2. Because Herbert will not match Burrow's success in the NFL, it won't even be close and Tua is glass. Trading down for more picks doesn't always add more value to your roster. It's an unneccessary gamble with arguably the best QB to come out since Luck. Some say Manning (Peyton). If a team like the Dolphins is willing to trade that much to move up, you have to wonder why. "Okudah, Epeneza, Love, and Hamler in exchange for Joe Burrow....". Saying it out loud with knowledge of each player.. I'm not feeling it. And I hope.it doesn't play out this way. Regardless of keeping Andy or not. 

I see people on Welcome to Jungle Noise/FB don't like this Mock either.

U start dalton 2020, start love 2021 ala mahomes/Smith.

And without the laundry list of things the Bengals don’t have he is average.

We already have two average QBs. A third average QB is a luxury pick.

No love will elevate players around him.

MB knows what puts butts in the seats and won't pass on the shiny new thing to put a spell on the fans. If they do nothing in free agency they are settling for mediocrity and putting more money in their pockets while ***** slapping the fans again.

Then they’re not real fans and they can go **** themselves. If ur a fan ur a fan. Simple. Also I think the prospect of having 3-4 elite new players on the team including a great potential qb is lord attractive than 1 new piece.
