Wonder if Miami can pull a trade like this during the draft, I will be satisfied. The Bengals are looking for an impact defensive tackle or defensive player and so are the patriots and the broncos. We will be getting in return number 24 and one of their first round picks and if our attempt is to get a quarterback we could still get Rivers. We won't though, our focus will continue to our offensive line.
 
you must be dreaming. They would move up 4 spots and give us a 2nd for that?They can't be that stupid man.

Ozzy rules!!
 
IMO, no way Cincy sends us a 2nd just to move up 4 spots, especially in the late-1st.
 
According to the draft value chart, that trade would only get us a 4th rounder, so maybe a 3rd if the Bengals are desperate to move up..
 
Dolphans.......

You guys will take Andrews and you will like it.
 
Never mind the value issues here. Ask yourself this for a moment: Cincy just traded down from 17 to 24, presumably because they don't see there being anyone they want at that spot. Why would they then jump back up to #20? Did they change their mind all of a sudden? Is it SUCH an exact science that they think "Joe Schmoe will surely be there at 17, but that's too high. But he won't be there at 24, so we need to move up to 20"?
Usually when a team trades down like that, it's to take a guy that they figure is going around 26-30. Maybe if someone unexpectedly falls and they get desperate, then they look at moving up to 20.
 
The original suggestion of 24 and a second for 20 is far worse than even the San Diego 2 high seconds for 20 talk is, but I wouldn't be shocked to see the Bengals move up in the event somebody they really liked fell to 20. Let's say that they're after Gamble, but D. Robinson falls. They didn't like him at 17, but maybe they do like him a lot better at 20. That really could be worth a 4th or maybe a more complex trade where Miami sends #20 and a 4th for #24 and a third. Stranger things have happened.
