## Resource

The Bengals stunned fans by trading a first-round pick for veteran DT Dexter Lawrence — a bold move signaling they’re willing to sacrifice future draft capital for proven stars. Their strategy targets elite players near the top of their position, under 30, with 1-2 years left on their contract — no QBs or WRs allowed. Potential targets include safety Xavier McKinney, CB Jaylon Johnson (if Dax Hill departs), and LB Jamien Sherwood. They may also pursue center Creed Humphrey to fix their offensive line — even if it costs dearly. If Lawrence pays off, expect more surprise trades.
