And you can't say the NEVER do it because they made trades to move around in the draft for the last three years.
It was possible that no one was interested in trading for Dalton because of his salary. Same for Eifert.
The Bengals came out and publicly said they weren't interested in trading last year.
That may have been a negotiation strategy, but if it was it failed.
