With the famous dead cat bounce likely to save Zac and his coaching staff, the Bengals are likely going to pick around 6th. The meaningless win against the Texans vaulted three teams above the Bengals, including several with offensive line needs. So, what do you think the team does? Might Kyle Pitts be attractive in this slot?
LB or trade back if worth it
There will be a lot happen between now and end of April, hard to say at this point.
Chase
Darrisaw
Pitts
Slater
Waddle
My gut tells me Burrow is reunited with Chase.
If the Bengals miss out on Sewell? Then they need to address the defense. Gregory Rousseau or Patrick Surtain II would be a great addition to the defense. Given the amount of money tied up in the secondary, I'd put my money on Surtain. Having a new star on a rookie contract would allow them to let WJ3 to test the market.
Hardly ever see love for Micah Parsons on this board..... do we really think we are set at LB?
Kyle Pitts is intriguing... but our coaching staff doesn't seem to value TE's and if we get him does he block well?
I wouldn't mind Surtain but only if we can retain our secondary... I find it annoying you have good players and just draft their replacement. I want to get better not just replace a good player for a cheaper contract.

No shot, bucko.

It's much easier to value a game changing TE, if you have one.

Definitely not set, but Wilson and Pratt look like the future at LB. I’d be shocked if they took one in the 1st.

Yep. Pitts would quickly become a favorite target for Burrow.

He certainly didn't have any trouble using Moss. If guys get open and catch the ball, QBs throw to them.

I'm not sold on Pratt.... but yea I can see it not being a huge need for this team.
Our offense with Burrow and couple without we have put up 6 games of 25+ points that should be enough to win most games in the NFL. Usually I'm an offense guy but really feel like defense is optimal.

I wouldn't be shocked...but def surprised.
Those two looked good but they could really use another. I don't want one in the 1st though.
But...Micah Parsons looks like a real disruptor with a nose for the ball and some serious speed.
EDIT: He's starting to look like a guy that could fix a couple problems on D; run stopper and pressure up the middle on blitzes.
Finally get an impact LB , stop run happy AFC...

He's got end to end speed.... some are calling him the best LB to come out since Luke Kuechly.
Personally I'd take him.

I'm starting to really like the idea.
