The real question is would you be mad at getting Adam's for a minimum of a first? I would imagine the price for them to just answer the phone.

I would say a 1 and a 2 or 3 is the price to get him. Can’t see two 1’s for a safety.

I think benching Dalton to give Finley a trial run makes it a lot less likely that the Bengals will trade Green or Eifert. If you're going to take this opportunity to evaluate a young QB in live game action, I think you want to give him his best chance.

Agree and honestly they shouldn’t trade either unless some team came calling with crazy compensation.

No, what are the odds of getting a safety better than Jamal Adams in the draft next year?

I dont trade a first to get Adams.  He is good but no...keep the first.

I'd be for it IF we didn't need to completely rebuild our DL. McCoy is only on a one year deal, KK is a potential cap casualty, and Poe will be on the last year of his contract. All are on the wrong side of 30 also.

Adams is cost controlled for the rest of this year and the next two years, and has proven he can play at a high level in the NFL and was a top 5 pick. I know he’s a safety but a later first rounder for him would be pretty damn solid value. I think they’ll want more and will get more, however.

    • 99% of my complaints generally are front office complaints.  It may not appear that way always but that's where I have been for some time.   It's also why I constantly talk about random parts the last several years....  to this day, if they were going to draft Bryce Young....I thought they needed to do specific things.   They have literally done the opposite.   In a certain world, I would LOVE an AT.  A Bryce Young.  An XL.  All sorts of people.  How they have chosen to put it all together here? Meh.  I still think if Bryce Young is your QB....the easiest and obvious play for a team....would be a dynamic slot WR, a rec RB, and solid rec TE.  Spread it out.  Let him be the point guard.  I still think this team is being built for a different type QB....one that a Jake Delhomme style QB would thrive more in.  Which is in fact the heart of what Canales has been around and done.  So I nitpick it all.  If I had thought Bryce Young was going to rebound....I would have NEVER been all in on XL like I was.  I was all in XL because I thought the BY experiment was about to over quick.  Ladd would have made way more sense if you believed in BY IMO.   I don't think this team did.  I think Dave drafted XL because they were mentally ready to move on and did after 2 weeks.  and I thought the Frank think was bologna from the jump.  I just have hate the pairings and plan every since Rhule year 1.   Rhule year 1 was the last time I really thought this team was in a good place to give it a go.  It went horribly.  But....the zoomed out plan was pretty logical all around.  Rhule just was not ready and a clown on top of that.   I still think the Dave, BY, XL, Tmac build 3 round pegs and a square one at the end of the day.  Worst thing to happen to BY was to land in Carolina IMO.   Which is often how the NFL plays out.  Where you land and what the org does matters probably more than raw talent/ability often.  I do not actually have a problem with Adam Thielen in a vacuum.  He is overperforming in a vacuum all things considered.  
    • Bryce Young could throw for 40 tds and 4500 yards this season and my gut instinct still says you would triple down on hating him.
    • They should just be predetermined slotted contracts.  I feel like that was the intention of the current system, but they left too much room for interpretation about guaranteed money.  I agree though.  You play for who drafts you or you don't play.
