One factor: Are they looking for a tackle or a guard? Or a guy who can play both? There are some IOL guys -- Dickerson, Meinerz, Davis, Humphrey, Green, Trey Smith -- that they can pick up later in the second or in the third. So yeah, trade back if they are looking for a C-G. Or take Ojulari (!) or Barmore and get the IOL in the third. Yes, the wait would be hairy. But as they say, no risk it, no biscuit.
Man, there are a lot of tackles -- Little, Jenkins, Radunz, Cosmi, Carman, Eichenberg, Christensen, Mayfield.
And many less receivers. Another reason Chase was the best choice.
I think the Bengals modus operandi is to take Guard/OT prospect so he can play guard for year then kick outside. Jenkins and Mayfield and Carman fit the bill nicely.
Speaking of Mayfield, he is an enigma. I don't know what to think. He played better 2020 and seems like a Bengal pick.
Most of the top OL prospects available seems to be power gap and not sure on fit. So I am worried that JOK (LB), and Perkins (edge) may be tempting for Bengals. Maybe Dickerson who has high risk reward.
