4 players the Bengals should still try to trade during the NFL draft 

The Cincinnati Bengals should still try to offload some players via trade during the NFL draft.

Giovani Bernard, RB

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (25) turns downfield with a carry in the fourth quarter of the NFL Week 1 game between the Seattle Seahawks and the Cincinnati Bengals at CenturyLink Field in Seattle on Sunday, Sept. 8, 2019. The Bengals lost 21-20 in the season opener.

Bernard is a top-20 back in terms of pay in 2020, commanding $9.7 million.

That can’t be right…right?

But it is, as the Bengals hit Bernard with a costly two-year extension last September despite the running back market seeming to readjust to smaller numbers for everyone but the very top names.

After the extension, the Bengals fed Bernard just 53 rushes and 43 targets. He’s a model player and presence, but he could net a worthwhile draft pick in return and clears space at a position about to see Joe Mixon requesting an extension.
