Teams do it. The Rams did it the year they beat us to win the Super Bowl. There is absolutely nothing wrong with giving up picks to get a proven commodity. Teams value picks waaaay too much. 

The Bengals still have 20 million in cap space. You could really, really argue that they need to be more aggressive over the next 5 years with their spending and trading of picks to maximize the window of this team. 

Is Simmons on the block? What player would you want the bengals to go after? I agree that the bengals should be aggressive to try and go all in, but these hypotheticals for players that are not even available are silly.

The rams, while bolstering their team with vets, also had younger guys on the team as well, so that point stands.

The bengals had a hole at safety and brought in two guys this offseason. RT addressed with a vet and 1st round pick. DT saw us bring in 3 new additions.

Where would a splash trade make sense? What one position would put us over the top. I don’t disagree that we need to act with a sense of urgency, but I feel like the bengals are doing a good job of addressing needs and hole maintaining flexibility (to do with what they want).
