Draft S Dax Hill in the 1st round.
Draft DT Devonta Wyatt in the 2nd round with improved 2nd round pick from Bates.
Pretty sure that checks all the boxes of needs. Sure would have liked to be able to fit Bobby Wagner in there somewhere. A future HoFer to lead the defense at LB would have been nice, but oh well.
This would be great but I think we can get a pick out of Dallas instead of a straight trade.
Putting a lot of pressure on the rookie safety, might consider a vet on a 1 year deal as insurance as well. Maye coming off an injury? (he is really good but could be a discount, maybe)
We both know the Bengals wont sign 2 guards, we will be lucky if they sign one.
That 2nd we pick up better be pretty high to get Wyatt.
Interesting for sure.
