What i was looking at is...stop going after Golladay and offer the KC C Reiter. There's an upgrade at C, with Hopkins backing up and Price out the door. In the draft, i'm looking to hit as many needs as possible. If you trade back and take Phillips, you have another quality ED. Then you take the much cheaper than Golladay guy in Bateman to give you 3 really good WRs. Bateman has the size and speed to play outside, which is what the Bengals need in a WR right now. By trading back, they pick up an extra pick in rd2 for that much needed OG.
Needs met.
Center, ED, WR and OG.
It's a solid plan.
I'm still crossing my fingers for Turner to get signed to give us one decent G and then pick up a WR to give us another veteran presence in that room.
Then, trade down, get Slater, as you said get an extra 2nd rounder and use it on Basham, and then you can take the other LSU WR Marshall in round 2.
Having Jonah, Slater, Hopkins/Price Turner and Reiff in front of Burrow with Boyd, Higgins, Sammy Watkins perhaps and Terrace Marshall Jr is a good look for the O.
And adding Basham to be a physical beast to go get the QB is nice.
