What team was willing to move back and what were the demanding in return?
The reason picks usually take so long in the first round is that teams are on the phone trying to see if there are any good deals to move up or down. But 95% of the time there is not trade. It takes TWO teams for a trade and often times there just is not a partner out there wanting to take what you offer.
That seems a bit semantic doesn't it? Everyone has a price, maybe it was too high. Maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was a judgement call that he'd be somewhere that he wasn't. Trading back was also an option. And on top of this, trades were at an all time high.
Its okay to question whats going on or not agree. Its also okay while questioning to admit that the guys we got are VERY athletic.
The thing I don't like about your argument is at the end of the day, none of us have the info that the Bengals do. None of us are being paid to sit in and make decisions or have back room info, its all best guess. It doesn't mean we can't question, nor does it mean that we think the world is falling.
