The Cincinnati Bengals have told the Miami Dolphins multiple times that they would not trade the No. 1 overall pick in Thursday's NFL draft, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Dolphins called on more than one occasion over the past few weeks but were told by the Bengals that they are not trading the pick and will stay at No. 1, sources said.

Miami has an NFL-high three first-round picks -- Nos. 5, 18 and 26 -- and has been widely speculated as a possible candidate to trade up in the round. The Dolphins also have a league-high 14 total selections in this draft.

This would appear to solidify that the Bengals want Burrow or nothing.  But that said, everything has a price.  Depending on what the Dolphins offer was, and how Burrow's career turns out, this is one of those stories that will be very interesting to look back on in a few years.
