What if a team wants Hooker at end of round 1? - Luvnit2 - 04-03-2023

I see 2 teams that would be prime candidates to want the 5th year option on a QB look Hooker.

I am no draft expert determining value. Seattle has pick 38 and Raiders have pick 38. Seattle has picks 37 and other great picks from the Wilson trade.

Should Bengals consider a trade down into round 2 for pick#28? If so, anyone know the value we should get for pick #28 for pick #37 or #38?
Obviously we would need more, what s that value?

Its possible a team likes him enough to move up. Dropping 10 spots into the second round has a value of around the Bengals 3rd round pick at 92 but you'd have to think you could get better value if you have a couple teams looking to move up. It would put them back in better range for Syracuse's Matthew Bergeron if Darnell Wright is off the board at #28.

So the value to move back into round 1 by moving 9 or 10 spots only has a value of a late 3rd round pick.

That seems low to me. To get an extra option year for any player would be a huge positive.
