I'm not sure what you mean by that.  Sorry I'm tired, been up for a while with no sleep.  By trade value do you mean if he was an RFA more trade value to the team that acquired him? For AJ it is in his best interest to achieve unrestricted status because it means teams can sign him without giving up whatever tender the Bengals put on him as a restricted free agent. That is why he is pushing the issue. As an unrestricted free agent it will cost the team wanting to sign him less as they won't have to also give up whatever round tender draft pick, probably a second, the Bengals put on him if he remained restricted.
