    What would the Bengals response be if the Panthers offered Cam Newton and Christian McCaffrey for the #1 pick?

    I agree. It is crazy though. I didn't expect any of this. Knowing MB's history, unless he's getting Mahomes in a trade for this pick, I can't think of any possible package that he would accept.

    So, basically McCaffrey for Burrow? No. I'll take Burrow and Mixon over Newton/Dalton and McCaffery going forward.

    Can’t wait until Burrow goes #1 and it pisses all the national media off because they have to give the Bengals some major coverage. They really don’t want to have to do that it seems.

    They would hang up the phone when they hear the panthers say "Cam"
    The television crews left and about 10 reporters remained in the room. That's when Price took his turn doing the talking.
    What followed was a five-minute, 34-second expletive-filled tirade. The final tally was 77 uses of the "F" word or a variant and 11 uses of a vulgar term for feces (two bovine, one equine).

    what are the chances they cut to commercial when the Bengals make the No.1 overall pick.

    Well, that's what those words mean. He was here. If they don't keep him, he will have been lost/subtracted. I headed out the door today with two shoes on my feet. If I don't return with them, I have lost them. If I do return with them, I haven't added them. ---M2

He had talent up and down the 53 man roster and coaches like Gruden, Zimmer and Hue all who got head coaching gigs due to the job they did as Bengals.
    The QB had nothing to do with 2005 and 2015's failures, except in one very relevant way. The QB got hurt.

    If you're saying Burrow would have found a way to not get hurt, ok. I can't disagree.

    But I have to throw this out there, just to bring us back to the modern age and further illustrate my point. After Hue Jackson's colossal failure in Cleveland, Hue found himself back with the Bengals as a coach. No other NFL team will ever hire Hue Jackson, ever again. But Mike Brown did. Why do you suppose that was?

    Was it
    a) Hue's proven track record of success
    or
    b) Loyalty to Mike Brown shown even when employed elsewhere

    Hue was hired because of Mike Brown's loyalty to Marvin Lewis. Notice how those 2 aren't here anymore after the last time Marv convinced Mike to bring his guy back.

    You're making my point. The Bengals had a team that could advance in the playoffs but it all came crashing down due to injury. Therefore it's not inevitable that you lose in Cincinnati

    Not even tempting. Cam's best years are behind him and RBs are a dime a dozen due to injury factor and short shelf life. I'd rather have Andy Dalton+Joe Mixon than Cam+McCafferty right now

    Bad luck and bad coaching.

    If Joe Burrow so much as wins a playoff game as a Bengal they'll build a statue to him.

    Draft him at #1 and if he refuses to sign, let him know that you're not trading him and he'll have to sit out the entire year. Then let him know you'll be tanking in 2020 and drafting him #1 again for the following year. Sign and play or your career will be held hostage.
