But go for it, lets protect Joe I probably wouldn't want to give a first for him, even though he's probably worth it and that's likely the cost. I think there's good players to be had there and those good players on rookie contracts are super valuable. Obviously, if we make that trade, I'd be happy because it would give us a nice pair of young tackles, but it doesn't solve our biggest issues, which are interior line and depth.

I don't disagree with this overall. I would just like to see the team be aggressive and bring in top end players on the line. Ideally I wouldn't give up 31, but I don't think a deal gets done without it. I am honestly OK bringing back Reiff at RT if you sign 2 top end Guards.

I'd be happier with quality starters and backups over top end starters and cheap backups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also has a 19 mil contract. We shouldn't trade a 1st round pick for that. Maybe trade a 2nd or 3rd for someone like Ramczyk or Havenstein if we don't find a tackle we like in FA.

He may not be as good. but Armstead is a FA that will have a ton of suitors. And Brown is not likely leaving KC. 19 mill for a LT who is 28 isn't bad. It is less than you would pay both the other guys and the big thing is the lack of a signing bonus and guaranteed money for the Bengals.

sparky151 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Houston traded 2 first rounders and a day 2 pick for Tunsil. Then gave him a big contract. I doubt they will trade him for a 1st. Even if they are willing, we shouldn't accept that offer. LT is the one position where we are at least average on the O-line. If we somehow fix the other positions and have a lot of money left over, then we could think about trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are trading Jonah, you move him to one of those other spots, no? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good player. You have no idea if you're getting a good player at 31. I'd do the trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they did trade Hopkins for a 2 and a bad RB...so maybe we dont even need to include pick 31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
