To set up this simulation the Bengals had specific targets of value with the 18th selection who were off the board at #18:
J.C. Latham (16)
Joe Alt (10)
Quinyon Mitchell (15)
Taliese Fuaga (13)
With these target players off of the boards I felt it was prudent to look at offered trades for the 18th overall selection and attempt to assess how the draft may fall given the selections already made. The Bengals traded the 18th overall selection to Detroit which they used to select Jer"Zhan Newton who would have been my pick had I retained this selection. Below is the trade recap:
