If the Bengals plan/hope to sign Minter to an extension by next offseason, I think a Day 3 depth pick is the most likely scenario for this draft.
My understanding was that the Bengals wanted to sign him for multiple years...but Minter only wanted a 1 year deal banking on having a huge season and cashing in.
The only way the Bengals will extend him during the year is if he starts the year on fire and they give him a huge contract. I'd say the odds of that are unlikely.
