Precisely because everyone knows tge talent at 16-60 is relatively flat. The same dynamic is in play at #49. And you don't get much for moving down in Rd3 (though we still could).
The only reasons to pay a premium to trade up are if a stud guy falls or if the team is desperate to fill a need and falls in love with a prospect.
In the first instance, we would likely be interested in the player falling (Warren, Walker, Johnson, Membou, W. Campbell, etc). Maybe Jeanty or Loveland or a WR would work for us.
I do think vet bargains and late cuts in FA are realistic. I'd love to get Trey done. With Tee, Chase, & Trey all locked up, we become a much more attractive destination for a vet to chase a ring.
When have the Bengals made a trade during the draft? Last I recall was the ludicrous move they made to trade up for Ryanfinley.
They’re not trading back or up or sideways. Takes too much thought and thinking is hard.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.
