    Not to mention with the Bengals he's got a greater chance at 1 contract and that 40 million whereas if he goes to a great organization like Pittsburgh, New Orleans, New England he's got s chance to make that money back on his second, third, fourth contracts and sponsorships..

    I'm not under estimating the Pat's to deal They would be sensible and only slightly mortgage the future and not cripple the franchise for burrow.

    What if Cincy drafts, then trades him for those 3 No.1s? Not likely but that's how they get around the draft rules.

    That's no draft rules stating you have to trade it for a certain number of picks or players. Jimmy Johnson created a chart that gave s numerical value for every pick in the draft. The fussy overall is worth like 3000 whereas the Saints pick at like 24 overall is only worth like 700. That's why it costs so much to trade up. A third round pick is only worth a couple hundred. Seventh rounders worth like 50. These are just off memory you can find the chart online. If you pick late like the Saints and Patriots always do it'll cost like 4 firsts to equal the 3000 the first overall pick is worth.

    This is kinda funny as the draft chart the Pat's have is a lot more narrow, basically there is not much difference in 1st round pick. That's why they routinely trade back.
