So, when White goes off the board at #10 because some team trades up and takes him after Lapham declares him the Bengals pick, who do we take?


I'm still torn on taking a LB that high in the draft.  Theres always a top 5 type guy that slides down the board (Last year it was Minkah).  I think that's the guy we end up taking.

I take one of the following if available:
1) Nick Bosa
2) Quinnen Williams
3) Jonah Williams
4) Ed Oliver
5) Devin White
6) Greedy Williams (unless Dennard is re-signed)


If none are, I consider one of the other DL prospects here, as there should be a ton (Simmons, Ferrell, Gary, Wilkins), or I maybe consider Greg Little or Jawaan Taylor. However, I could see Little or Taylor struggling initially and that could infuriate fans. If Bengals are dead-set on OL, LB, or TE and White and Williams are gone, I'd probably consider trading back. Trading back to around 18th pick should also net a 2nd rounder too based on trade value chart (1250 vs 1300). Bengals could use about 5 picks within the first three rounds, especially if they avoid FA like they've traditionally done.
