Only way he's traded is if Finley or Dolegala light it up the rest of the season.

He's on a QB friendly salary and even if we draft a QB next year, AD will be the starter til the new QB is ready.
So he might be trade bait for next year's deadline, and we all know MB won't give him up for less than a 1st. He has no reason to, he's not in a hurry to make this franchise better.

You say that like it was me that called Dalton on his B-Day to tell him he was benched.

Or as if it was I that signed him to a deal that allowed him to be cut by June the 1st of his last year with no penalty and free up 17 million.

Or as if it was I that immediately called my agent to get me the hell out of here.

Or as if I polled all these NFL GM's and told them to give Dalton a 2nd round grade.

Or as if I convinced these GM's and Dalton's camp that seem to think it's highly likely he's gone during the offseason.

Dalton isn't even the starter now, let alone next year.

Teams see the success that a change of scenery had for Kirk Cousins and probably believe they could do the same with Dalton.

Whether or not that would happen is to be seen.

I can tell you one thing though, if the Bengals did decide to keep Dalton and his 17 million dollars.

Instead of using that money and a potential 2nd round pick to build around the new franchise QB whether it be Finley or a draft pick. 

Just to keep him on the team for 6 or 7 games then they won't be able to give tickets away as a free prize in cracker jack boxes. Lol
