2. Packers could trade David Bakhtiari to Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals are Super Bowl contenders, but winning the AFC is no easy task. They upset the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium a couple of seasons ago but fell short in last year's rematch.

According to ESPN, the Bengals ranked 30th in pass block win rate last season. They responded by signing Orlando Brown Jr. to a huge deal in free agency. The four-time Pro Bowler will significantly help Cincinnati's offensive line.

However, there are still questions up front for the Bengals.

One option they could have would be to move Brown to right tackle before trading for Bakhtiari. A tackle combination of Bakhtiari and Brown would be as good as any in the NFL and would significantly improve the Bengals' Super Bowl hopes.

Cincinnati has arguably the best receiving corps in the NFL. Joe Burrow is a rising star and already a top-five quarterback. Protecting Burrow has to be the top priority for the Bengals.

Signing Brown is the exact type of move the Bengals needed to make. But if the Packers are open to trading Bakhtiari, the Bengals should consider it.

It would be a great landing spot for Bakhtiari, too. He would join one of the best offenses in football with the opportunity to win a championship.
