If we're this close

I don't get CB at all.  I'm much more confident in the winner of a battle between a 1st round pick(Hill) and a 2nd round pick (Turner) than I am a battle between a pair of Day 3 picks(Jones and Yoshi) and an UDFA(Irwin).

Give up next year's first and this year's first.

Then trade our multiple draft picks for another 2nd rounder?

Are we all in this year or aren't we?

Being all in doesn't mean giving up the future draft to get a guy that MIGHT be a good player.

I would love to see them move up a few spots and finally get THEIR guy if they want an OT.

I can certainly see your thoughts. But CB position is more important than third receiver don’t you think? Hill no experience there. Good corners tough to find and get.

Hill was playing CB as a rookie.  

The third WR is a starter in an 11 base offense.  Boyd has historically played just as much, if not more, than Hilton(75-80% of the snaps).

There's good CB's out on the street right now.

Yes, would much rather bring in one of the Corners off the street after the Draft than draft another one early.

Draft a WR to replace Boyd at the very least.

I don't really see it as much of an issue.  People always want to draft guys for the next 10 years, but the reality is that getting a guy that makes it to his 5th year option is a good pick.  Give me five good years and I'm good.

Rapine thinks they'll trade up in the middle rounds.  I might trade up in the 1st for Fashanu if he's available at like 15th.

I have a feeling the Bengals will do at least two, maybe three, trades.

We’ll see I’m hearing they are eyeing Arnold

Boyd is the third receiver. Gesicki will be the third receiver but if Brian Thomas is there they may go there.
