Give them 2 first rounders to get him BEFORE the Monday night game.

The window to win is right now. They should be trying to buy HARD imo. They could use help at interior DL, corner back. They could also use another wide receiver for depth.

I get frustrated sometimes that the Bengals are so in love with draft picks. Jackson Carman, Billy Price, Cedric Obghui, John Ross, Drew Sample, etc. are all exhibits of why I would 100% take a known quantity over a lottery ticket.

Make a trade, Bengals. The time has never been more right.

WR I could see but to get anybody good who can you trade somebody wants. I don’t want to give up a draft choice. The draft is gong to save us salary cap wise as we need capital for our QB, WR, S, and Logan Wilson.

On defense we could use another pass rusher, but I still want Ossai getting his reps. The DT spot only needs addressed if Reader and Tupou is not getting back on the field this year. Carter and Tufele need reps so we know what we got with these guys for the future if they can hold it down over next few games till, we get healthier at DT then we should let the youth develop.

If we trade it should be to get more explosive on special teams at kickoff returner or a punt returner.

If we can upgrade depth, we should always look to do that second string O-line could be upgraded with proven players.

Sorry, but I'm just not ready to rely on unproven rookies for a Super Bowl run. We need some proven quantities. 

Why would we not look to upgrade the team? Make a splash and get an elite guy for our defense. We don't necessarily need picks right now....teams overvalue picks anyway.

They essentially got Scharping to replace him.

They 100% need to get a better WR4, as insurance if anything. The 4th WR on the team (Thomas) only has 38 yards (2 rec, 8 targets).
Let go of the RB4 if you really don't want to let go of Morgan, Thomas, and Taylor.
Williams (the RB4) has a whole 1 ST snap all season. He's clearly not needed. Kick him down the PS and bring him up if there ends up being an injury.

As for IDL, it's always good to have an extra pass rusher. However, I don't necessarily think it has to be IDL, as the Bengals could kick Hubbard inside on passing downs and bring in another outside rusher to help there.

Ossai is just now “finding his legs” and Sample is going to get worn out rotating in at 3T AND defensive end. If the Bengals consider themselves contenders then they know they’ll be drafting late. I’d trade a 3rd (plus?) for a rotational guy in a heartbeat.
