If Finley faces intense pressure and has to run around the pocket to save his life in the last 8 games, I think the Bengals will have to address the offensive line with the first two picks. Why draft a QB in the 1st when they will be set up for failure? They can get Thomas in Round 1 and a Kindley/Bredeson in Round 2.
Trading Green would have enabled them to get a QB of their choice at 1a and then a solid OT at 1b. They can then grab Kindley/Bredeson in Round 2. Of course, the draft is months away and lots can and will happen until then but you get the point.
I don't think Finley will be successful. I like the fact that they are going to give him a shot, but, I have no confidence in that line to give him the time he needs. I hope I'm wrong.
