Duke Tobin on potentially trading back: I don't want to drop down a level of player.
Essentially says trading back is possible, but not that far.

I don't think anyone would argue with this. We don't want to go too far but there has to be a good reason meaning lots of compensation to do so.
Re: Draft Talk - Cuz it's never too early...
If the Bengals have their hearts set on Chase or Swallow etc... its going to take a lot of persuading to move them from the #5 spot. The last thing SoP wants on his payroll is a bunch more rookies most of whom aren't going to contribute much their first year. That's just the way this team operates.
So the incentive of "lots of picks" doesn't sway this team the way it might most other organizations. It's just not the Bengal way....

Bengals met with QB prospect ahead of 2021 NFL draft
By Chris Roling | 4/25/21
The Cincinnati Bengals have put in hundreds of calls and overall contact with prospects ahead of the 2021 NFL draft.
That includes Northwestern quarterback Peyton Ramsey.
According to Yahoo Sports’ Eric Edholm, the Bengals are one of the notable teams that put in work with Ramsey recently.
Ramsey is actually a pretty interesting late-round target for the Bengals. After three years at Indiana, he joined Northwestern and last season led the team to the Big Ten title game. He didn’t put up eye-boggling stats in the process, but he’s a solid backup-type player who might carve out a long career for himself.
As of now, Cincinnati has Brandon Allen and Kyle Shurmur behind Joe Burrow, so some developmental depth makes this sort of pre-draft contact make sense.

Sounds like the falcons are trying to trade Julio which could likely signal chase?

The Falcons are in salary cap Hell. They are currently over 6 mil over the Cap per overthecap.com. Julio's cap hit for 2021 is just over 23 mil. My prediction is that they eventually redo his contract and he will stay in Atlanta.skycruiser wrote: ↑Mon Apr 26, 2021 8:09 amSounds like the falcons are trying to trade Julio which could likely signal chase?
