I would guess the Bengals are trying to get out from under large RB contracts not lock themselves in to a large contracts to aging RBs that have had alot of touches. Also neither one of their teams want to give them up for nothing I'd assume low 2 or high 3 at the lowest. 

Agreed. Any large contract given to a RB is better spent on OL, both starters and depth. Improving your OL helps both your running game regardless of who is in the backfield and more importantly helps protect Joe Burrow, which is really the number one thing that matters on this team.

Draft a RB, let him play out 3/4 years or 4/5 years of his rookie contract, draft another RB, repeat. If you happen to find the second coming of Barry Sanders or Jim Brown we can talk about paying a RB, but short of that keep it churning.
