The Bengals could get Cosmi for 4 years and be responsible for $51M of his contract. As a bonus, Cosmi has only committed 4 holding penalties in 4 seasons, has experience at both RT and RG. It would definitely put the pressure on the team to rectify the Stewart contract language and hope and pray that Ossai and Murphy show up to play this year.

At the end of the day, I'd rather have Trey paid, happy and smashing QBs en route to a Bengals Superbowl Championship. But if there is just no reaching of an agreement between him and the team, a trade for a guy like Cosmi would be a soft landing.

I completely agree that I would rather have Trey as a Bengal. That is the first choice. But Sunset; if/when that happens, I don't feel either side would be happy with the contract - and that is ok. To me, that would mean value for both. 

But if he is traded, Cosmi is the guy I want. If he is signed, I want Scherff.

All the garbage that is written about trading Trey for second round picks next year (which would have been a 3rd round pick this year), Jerzan Newton, etc. is paid talking heads propagating the agenda of other owners. 

With Jesse Bates, Tee and now Trey - it seems that every season we are in some type of internal struggle.
