We all know that the Bengals are doing their due dilligence with mock drafts and scenerios of their own over the next few weeks.
And, if Miami were to give a mega deal for Burrow, the Bengals would know before the draft and work out the strategy to see the plethora of talent they'd accrue.
I had to make it a trade proposal that the Bengals just couldn't pass on because I feel the Fans would boycott the franchise if they didn't take Burrow at #1. Lmao
So, the Trade is Miami's first 5 picks and a #1 in 2021 and #1 in 2022.
That's A LOT of drafts picks in the Top 100 over the next 3 drafts. It would be hard to pass up IMO.
And, they obviously feel the team would get infused with talent and they would roll with Dalton to take them to the Playoffs again while grooming the next QB of the future.
Here's the draft that I ended up with this year in having picks 5, 18, 26, 33, 39, 56, 65, 70, 107, 147, 180, 215. (This is also the picks without moving all around the draft for extra or less picks of course).
MY QUESTION TO EVERYONE IS, WOULD THIS BE GOOD ENOUGH IN YOUR OPINIONS???????
#5-----Tristan Wirfs LT/RT Iowa
#18---Jordan Love (Perfect scenerio of course) QB Utah St
#26---Kenneth Murray LB Okl
#33---Tee Higgins WR Clemson
#39---Marlon Davidson DL Auburn
#56---Clyde Edwards Helaire RB LSU
#65---Curtis Weaver DE/LB Boise St
#70--Antoine Winfield Jr. S Minn
#107--Netane Muti OG Fresno St
#147--Josiah Deguara TE UC
#180--Willie Gay Jr. LB Miss St
#215--Ben Victor WR OSU
IMO, we could still get some trades, end up with 8 or 9 picks, and end up with a very nice draft centered around Joe Burrow and be on our way. There's just too many question marks if these guys would all hit or not. Only something like 50% of 1st rounders hit and we've got 3 of those. And, one is a "Project" QB for the future. I just don't think so.
I'll be anxious to see everyone's opinions on it though.
I'll play your scenario (and will whisper that I'd do that trade so I don't get attacked). I'd switch the #5 pick to Isaiah Simmons or Okudah. I'm good with Love at #18 to develop since Dalton is still there and would take the OT at #26. We could argue which WR at #33, but I really like the position there outside of Zach Baun being available. I also wouldn't be opposed to trading down there and picking up another 1st next year (to make a run at Lawrence).
I'm not liking taking RB in round 2 unless it means Mixon isn't getting an extension. I really like the value pick of Winfield Jr and think Victor could be a great developmental guy for the practice squad in the 7th.
