That SF deal is too sweet to pass up; two 2nd round picks to bump back 8 spots. It would be great for the Bengals if they started getting offers like this on draft day. I think this perfectly fits with having a window open in 2022 and beyond

The have issues with the SF deal.  First, they're a year removed from the SB and it would make more sense for them to try to trade for a vet like Watson than to try and move up for QB3.  Second, they apparently didn't offer this trade to ATL at 4 and Washington, NE, and Chicago who all made rejected offers for the #4 pick apparently aren't willing to do so for #5.  Chicago's offer was 2 1st's and a 2nd for #4, and that's a lot better than a 1st and 2 2nd's.

At the end of the day, it's hard for a team with our OL woes to pass on a generational type talent in Sewell for anything less than a crazy boatload of picks type deal, which none of these are.
