Here is the scenario that has been circulating in my mind lately, although it is really unlikely. I believe it occurred to me because both Hobson and Dehner have floated the idea of the Bengals trading a player to move from 33 back up into round 1. Hobson just said maybe a player (and that was a while back) but Dehner actually said Dalton.
So Dalton and pick 33 to NE for pick 23 IF Kenneth Murray is there. Per the various trade value charts out there, that would equate Dalton to a 3rd round pick. To get NE to agree to it we'd have to agree to pay some of Dalton's salary, like 5 or 6 million (bc no way is NE going to pay him 17.7). Maybe we throw in Price for another day 3 pick, which they might want to do if they ship Thuney to somebody else.
