Bengals’ proposed trade with AFC North rival could fix offensive line overnight

You don't need us to tell you that the Cincinnati Bengals can desperately use offensive line help. It's been a long-standing issue that has plagued the franchise during the Joe Burrow era. However, they could be given a lifeline to address the seemingly perpetually glaring area of weakness courtesy of their AFC North rival Cleveland Browns.

With the rebuilding Browns leaning into a youth movement and the NFL's Nov. 4 trade deadline rapidly approach, veterans may be on their way out.

Knowing this, Vinnie Iyer of Sporting News identified Cleveland's longest-tenured player, guard Joel Bitonio, as the "ideal" target for Cincinnati, and it's hard to argue.
