I think the Bengals suck and a young QB will most likely not flourish in this environment.

 

Normally I'm a fan of more picks, as the draft is a lot of guess work and a lot of luck. You can find good starters in just about every round of you do your homework or get lucky. Getting lucky is easier with more picks.

I don't hate the idea of moving back, but personally I don't think we're a ton of players away from being a good team. Our OL got better as the season went on and so did our LBers. In November I would've said we had 5-6 spots to fill with starters. Now, were down to two (linebacker and quarterback). Young wouldn't fix the linebacker issue, but Pratt was coming on and upgrading the DL will make the LBers better. 

Receiver could be another spot of higher need, but it partially depends on what happens with AJ.
