Giants already kicked off the chaos with the Dexter Lawrence trade.  They need alot of help.  I dont see them staying put with both picks.  I can see them using 1 to trade down a few times to collect more picks.

Styles and downs makes too much sense but it's the Giants 

They will do something like draft Tyson at 5 and then take Downs at 10. Styles won't be there at 10....hell, he might not be there at 5.

This was a really dumb trade by the Bengals. Lawrence is knocking the door of 30 and is coming off of a very down year. When you're closing in on 30 it's fair to wonder if it was a down year or are the wheels falling off? Huge explosive guys often age like dairy products (Kris Jenkins comes to mind). Meanwhile, their OL is still a disaster and Burrow is getting the hell beat out of him every year and is already starting to openly talk about potentially retiring. Given their massive investment in him and WRs, I would've gone all in on OL this offseason. They had a decent chance to have their pick of the OL litter with that pick. If he's not washed, Lawrence should help their anemic defense, but it won't help their superstar QB from rising off into the sunset because he's tired of getting beat to hell every Sunday and that would've been my priority.

This tells me that they are going all in the next 2 years for a SB and if that fails they will be moving all their stars

Mirror the Goff/Stafford trade...Bryce, two 1sts, filler. 

Burrow 2027, make it happen.

Word is that Lawrence showed up and weighed in at nearly 400 pounds for his Bengals medical check. I'd find a reason to fail him. Blood type tested as bacon grease. Fail.

We've all seen what happens when a dominant huge, explosive DT can't manage his weight. You're gonna age like milk. Looking like Kris Jenkins 2.0.

People are reacting to a single photo where he looks like a nose tackle.

He passed the physical.

Never saw a picture. Saw “almost 400 lbs”.  
 

That will hoist a flag or two.

Thats people reacting to a photo where he looks like a NT like I said. People reacting online is not a valid indicator of anything.

They actually did a physical and passed him. That means more than "word is that".

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
