Cowboys, Jets trade buzz could help or hurt Bengals during NFL draft
Bengals fans shouldn't overlook the NFL trade rumors swirling around other teams near the top 10.
Not too long ago, we wrote about how the Cincinnati Bengals could end up impacted by an NFL trade rumor involving the Dallas Cowboys . As it turns out, the Cowboys aren't the only team that could impact the Bengals when it comes to trades. This thought stems off an interesting one from ESPN’s Matt Miller , who took to social media to caution against not taking trade rumblings seriously this time of year.
“It was this time last year when rumors started that the Browns might trade down from No. 2 overall,” Miller wrote. “At first they were brushed off...
then they solidified. I wouldn't ignore any rumors about teams like the Jets or Cowboys moving into the top 10. ” This goes both ways, too.
The Bengals sit in a prime trade-down spot. If a team like the Cowboys gets desperate, Duke Tobin and Co. might be happy to move back two spots to No.
