NE is the most likely team to trade with all there picks but I read that they only want him if he is cut because they couldn’t afford his salary.

Bengals DONT WANT to keep his salary on the books but they have just enough to keep him and sign draft picks right now. If they free up that space they could work on Mixons extension or sign more FA

No they don't.
The estimated cost for the draft picks is expected to be about $12 mill, which is about $3 mill higher than their current salary cap.
They could keep Dalton and still sign all those picks, but they would need to cut/restructure someone else then.
