If the Bengals trade up for a QB this year, it will be a laughingstock. Draft offensive line and LBers, take a QB in 2020 after Dalton is done.

Haskins would be a top 2 pick in next year's draft as well. It's a weak class due to depth. But Haskins is a bonafide stud.

We. Can't find one good lber. U expect us to find 4? Plus I just hate 3-4 defenses.

There absolutely is. 2 guys I would absolutely LOVE to see is Ford a LT/g combo ala cordy Glenn in Ford out off okalhoma and Lindstrom great guard out of Boston college. Free agent market is trash this year.

Haskjns is a once in a decade type qb.

Free agency oline is absolutely trash. No even decent olineman.

But, if the plan is to get a new QB, AD could yield a 1st round and 2nd round pick easily in my opinion. AD is solid and has 2 years left of a very friendly contract. I could see the Jags or the Giants consider AD so the #1 would be a great pick. Why not draft a stud OT and a stud LB in round one if we get a second pick? 

Then, look at a FA stop gap QB like:
1. Flacco
2. Tyrod Taylor

My point is I don't see a franchise QB in the draft in 2019, maybe the OSU kid, but I am not convinced. I would hate to see them reach for a QB after trading up (very expensive).

What are you smoking that Dalton could get at least a first and second round pick? Demarius Thomas only got a 4th. Antonio freaking brown wouldn't even get a 1st and a 2nd.

Price will do the same.
