CB is reportedly on their list, too. Rightfully so.

Tyler Boyd for a 7th
Marshon Lattimore for a 3rd
Rhamondre Stevenson for a 4th

Obviously not all of these will happen.

Realistically I don't think we trade at all. My dream targets would be Simmons for a 3rd. Maxx Crosby for a 2nd. Jonathan Jones for a 4th.

I would certainly give up our 1st round pick for Crosby because what are the chances you could actually pick someone in the draft next year that would give you that type of production?

Well, it's not just about if we can find someone with that kind of production. It's about cap hit as well. If we can find a "cheap" fit that will contribute, then we can spend more money on something else. I'm not too sure about the Bengals using that money on someone else, but that's why most teams value those picks. The Bengals might just be concerned about the money from the contract.

Some of yall play too much Madden lol. Crosby IS NOT happening. Even if we could get past Mike Brown giving up MULTIPLE day one draft picks for a player who cost what he cost, immediately you’re going to have a bigger issue with Trey wanting more money in line with his new teammate. Simply put, NOT happening. Move onto something realistic, I.e. nothing. We should know better by now.

People are saying it's a dream scenario. Meaning it doesn't need to be realistic, just what we wish would happen. I bet you're a blast at parties.

As for a dream trade, straight up trade Tee Higgins for Lawrence from the Giants or Crosby from the Raiders.

Then add CB Lassiter for a 4th round pick we get their 5th round pick.

We need to upgrade 2 positions CB and DT/DE.

Burrow should get involved and shave a few million off his deal the length of his contract so we can surround him with a much defense.

Time is ticking for any moves via trade.

Tee Higgins and Murphy and a pick for Crosby.

With the way Trayveyon Williams screwed up on multiple plays on Sunday, I predict that the Bengals will come away with a RB today. If they can get the right deal, they'll add a DL (could use either NT or DE) and a CB.

I’m too lazy to look up his cap hit. Can we even afford max Crosby, and a chase and Hendrickson extension? We all agree we can’t afford Tee, how can we afford Crosby?

But I’d be all for it if we could fit him in long term with Hendrickson. I’d rather have 1 stud DE than 2 WR.

Za'Darius Smith goes for a 5th and pick swap of 6th and 7th next year on his way to the Lions.

I think this is the kind of deal we'd be looking at and should embrace today.

We become instant superbowl contenders. Crosby and Hendrickson would mask the rest of our Defensive issues.

I would be Fred Sanford if the team pulled this off.

Still blows my mind we haven't been able to find a good pass protecting RB in 4 years. Khalil Herbert, come on down and lets see if you got what we need.

If I were to suggest some realistic:

Devin Singletary  for a conditional 6th

Adam Theilen and a 7th for a 6th

We know you meant Williams as Trayveyon Henderson played a pretty good game Saturday.

Quote:1. The Bengals make no meaningful additions of talent.

Congrats, you tried to rub it in that the Bengals added a backup RB and didn't trade for a single starter or even defensive depth.

It's OK. I thought I was wrong once, but it turned out I was mistaken.
