Give up your 1st and a 3rd the next year for a 25 year old proven number 1 to go with aj and eifert.  He is only 25 and you get a for sure thing - it's not like our 1st round pick is that great.

Go sign boldin for 2 years and draft some receivers over the next years in the mid rounds.

Go all in the next 1-3 years for winning a title.  Instead of paying 7-8 for jones and 2-4 for sanu you could probably get Jeffrey 5 years 12-14 per year.

I don't know, maybe it is a dumb idea but I'm tired of seeing the bengals pay tier 2 players low tier 1 money.  Why not just go to the next level for a bit more. I'm sure teams would fear aj, Jeffrey, and (put any competent wr here) over aj, jones, sanu -

And eifert

We'd have to give up two first round picks if Alshon is tagged and we sign him to an offer sheet.
