Whose side on you on? Trey, the Bengals or none?

The Bengals gave him permission to seek the trade. NO ONE wanted to give up a 1st rounder. And you just want the Bengals to give him up for less? He's had 17.5 sacks the last two years, I would n't trade him to a team for less than a first either. Trey's problem is no one wanted to give up the draft capital AND pay him what he wants. You're the one who is ridiculous to suggest the Bengals should just let him go for less than a first because he whines. 

Exactly, the Bengals set a price that they felt confident that no team would match. After all, Duke himself said that "we're not in the business of making other teams better".
