Trade?
#12
There is definitely something going on here.  Gio isn't listed as injured, but didn't practice on Family Day?  And, his agent is in Cincinnati?

My take:  I love Gio the person.  Great character guy, and I think he could flourish in this offense.  However, there are not going to be enough balls to go around and I am hearing glowing reports on Williams, especially in the things that give a coach pause about a RB (blitz pick up, etc).  I am unsure of Anderson's ability for week 1, but Flowers could be the #3 RB to start the season.

The trade would have to be for a third round pick at the minimum and, really, I wouldn't do it for less than a 2nd.  A player trade?  As Au said, I really doubt it would be for offensive line help, and it seems that the Bengals are grooming Pratt and Evans to take over for Brown on the nickel LB packages.  The depth beyond them is very thin, though, so maybe there is a lower-tier LB with some experience that could be added and make the draft pick a 3rd rounder.

The nice thing here is that it would seem the Bengals hold all the cards.  Someone really wants Gio, but they aren't going to give him away just to save money...it will have to be a really good deal for them to pull the trigger.  What's really strange is the not-practicing, agent in town, thing.  Maybe they already have a deal in principal and are pending a physical on both ends?

What if there is a deal in place with San Diego who can't seem to get Gio since they can't seem to sign Gordon?
