If the Bengals are pretty much out of it by the trade deadline, no harm in trying Burton out there to find out.
If he is, you save a draft pick/FA $$ to put toward another position.
If he's not, you could use the gained draft capital from a Higgins trade (if traded) to help get a different guy to become your 2nd option in the passing game. Or just someone cheaper than what Higgins will command.
But I would think half a season of forcing Burton into the lineup would really help that evaluation.
