Teams will be looking to finalize their 53-man roster before the deadline on Saturday afternoon, so teams will be open to trading some players that are on the roster bubble before they make the decision of whether or march forward with them on the roster or cut them loose.
One of those players on the trading block is Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Dontay Moch, who could provide some speed to anyone’s defense.
From Ian Rapoport of NFL Network:
What you’ll hear over the next 2 days: Teams trying to trade players they may cut. Like #Bengals 2011 3rd round pass-rusher Dontay Moch
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 30, 2013
Moch has never been able to develop into the player that you would have liked to see from a third-round pick, but he still has some talent and could benefit from a fresh start elsewhere.
However, it is hard to see a team giving up anything in return for a player that they know will likely hit the waiver wire in just a few days.
