Guess - that’s all it is- is that it will be close to the draft, once free agency has started and teams see better what they need and which prospects impress in any workouts. Maybe somebody looks great and a team decides not to trade a high pick, or perhaps others are less impressive and teams are more willing to deal.

Detroit now needs a QB and sits at 7. They might want to leapfrog Philadelphia (at#6), who may or may not want a QB as well (Wentz not really cutting it).
I wonder what the Lions would offer the Bengals to do so?
Maybe not much since the top 2 QBs will be off the board at that point.
One thing is for sure... It's a really good offseason to NOT need a QB this time.

Idk, depending on who you view as the number 2 QB (I think it’s Fields), a lot of smoke the jets are going to take Zach Wilson. I’ve even seen some mocks having Lance go before Fields. I don’t know if this is just silly season stuff, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility the Lions move up to 5 and Fields is available.
What would you say.....ya do here?

Lawrence
Fields/Wilson
Lance
I think those are the general tiers. Lawrence for sure #1 - and then Wilson and Fields pretty much ranked together. A LOT of mocks have 3 qbs gone in top 4. The trade back scenario that works for the Bengals is if either Fields or Wilson is there at 5 and one of the QB needy teams between 7 and 12 wants to come up.
That will all be impacted by where some of the big name QBs available on the trade market end up. I am looking more at Stafford potentially impacting this than Watson even, as Stafford to SF or Carolina would take a trade up partner off the board. And that's setting aside if Rodgers is trying to slide out of Green Bay. A lot in flux right now. For once the Bengals preferred inertia will probably be helpful as where they are at 5 looks plum as things shake out across the league.
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
In Mel Kiper's first mock draft, he has DeVonta Smith going #2 to the Jets and J'Marr Chase next to the Dolphins. Sewell falls to us. Also, Brett Favre thinks the Jags should draft DeVonta Smith #1 overall.

Don't see how anybody can pass on DeVonta Smith except for Lawrence
Doesn't Kiper have the rule to not mock trades when he does his?
I've never seen him move teams up in his mock drafts, and he doesn't have anybody moving up for Wilson, Fields, or Lance. He has those three going to Atl>Det>Car.
Only a few surprises in his draft. He has OT Samuel Cosmi, DT Daviyon Nixon (weird considering he ranked him as his 10th best prospect a month ago), and edge Joseph Ossai falling out of the 1st, along with OT Teven Jenkins, CB Aaron Robinson, and edge Joe Tryon being bumped up.
If Cosmi did fall to the 2nd, and we missed out on Sewell and opted for Chase, I'd be cool with him as our 2nd pick.

Daniel Jeremiah in his first mock gave the Bengals Slater at #5 and Sewell came off the board 10 overall. He also spit in kingspoints general direction I would imagine...

Kwity Paye 4, Micah Parsons 15, DeVonta Smith 16. Can't see it.

I really would not mind if the Bengals traded down once or twice, and picked up additional day 2 picks. That's even if Sewell is on the board.
