My mistake, I forgot that they got the 1st round pick in the trade.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Okey Dokey..

To the OP: I'm a huge Perrion Winfrey fan big with long arms and so fast of the ball. I remember mentioning Alontae Taylor in a thread you posted Bfine about a mock draft site that had Taylor in the 200s. Guy is fast and has that length that can make a CB special. One thing I dont like is a Punter I know Araiza is a good punter but fo many good ones are UDFA to spend a mid round pick on one.
Thanks for explaining trade value. Hell I'd bfine with Perrion or Hall at 31. If we could get either at 40 and move up 23 spots in the 3rd; I wouldn't consider it a "favor". Sure we could probably also get a little more depending on how motivated the team is. But if we're to expensive they can trade with KC.
Our best 5th RDer in recent history was a kicker...I'd be curious to see how many late 5th rounders actually stick with a club for more than a couple years.

To be fair, that was one hell of a kicker. We also had Jones and Iloka so its not like we never hit there. Kareem has been solid depth, and wom us the Denver game.

Araiza had 2 punts is excess of 80 yards this year. Since 2013 there has only been 1 in the NFL. A punt of over 80 yards has you punting from your 10 and punting your opponent inside their 10. I seriously doubt he makes it to the end of the 5th,

Uzomah and Huber were also 5th rounders.

And Huber has arguably been the best of the bunch

If we gave up a 1st round pick for no extra picks, I would puke. No thanks as the deeper we go into a draft, the more likely the miss. I know we can find an instant starter/upgrade at pick #31 and get a 5th year option, not so sure at pick #40.
I understand this is a mock, but the problem is once we trade #31, we have no idea what two 2nd or 3rd round guys are available. Both of the guys could be long gone which makes it very risky for us.
At a minimum, if we trade out of #31, (our first round), I want an additional 2nd or 3rd round pick.
The rest of your draft has nothing to do with a trade.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

I think the thing in this draft is that Winfrey would be the OP's pick if he couldn't trade out of 31. By that logic, anything he can get and still get Winfrey is effectively free money.
My issue is moreso that if you're going to move up, it has to be either to fill a need or get a value. He really did neither. Anderson will likely take years to adjust to the speed of the game and learn all the aspects of the playbook required for the Swiss Army Knife he envisions. That's compounded by a big reach for Taylor in the 2nd, who just doesn't show the make up speed on the field that his 40 would lead you believe he has. He comes out of Day 2 with the #56, 82, and 102 prospects on the consensus big board, so he very likely could have just stayed put and got the same guys and had the option year on Winfrey.
Apart from that, no S really kills this one for me. We literally don't have a 53 man rosterable S under contract for next year, so even if the plan is to re-up Bates and Bell, you have to at least take a flyer for depth on Day 3.

This was the best mock draft that made sense I've seen on this forum this year! I was all for a 1. trade back, 2. a 3T, 3. a returner, and 4. Matt Araiza. Your draft met all the priorities I saw for this team. My ideal was Logan Hall for 3T and Marcus Jones for Returner; but Winfrey and Melton are equals. I hope this happens!!!

Nicely done Bfine. Love the trade and Winfrey as you know. Like Taylor and Troy Andersen is a new name I have not heard
of and I love the intrigue behind such a versatile player. Melton has grown on me and as you say fits and is exactly what our
ST's coach Simmons says he wants in this Draft as a dangerous Punt Returner that scares teams, can also play WR.
Well done Bfine once again, hope my last Mocks tonight are close to this good.

Solid assessment and I agree with Safety being a missed need. I do hope that if we get a guy like AT to step in, then we can look at seeing what Tre Flowers has at the Safety position. He's a perfect candidate to make the move.

His over/under is pick 117 right now.

Dane Belton the safety from Iowa is currently a late 5th/6th round grade and he's only 21 and was first team all big ten last year. He may be a nice sleeper.
