Dang. Just how big is PA anyways? He left weeks ago and he's STILL in the rear view mirror?

well we will find out if the change turns into a positive....


Center market might be getting smaller in FA or Draft with the bills Eric Woods being forced to retire.

He's far enough back now that all you can see is his ego and his ass.

The main takeaway is he likes guys with a nasty streak.
He also likes scheme versatility. The ability to play power or zone.

I know Jake Fisher had a mean streak coming out of Oregon. Ogbuehi did not. Bodine I think (kinda?) had that but may have been influenced by Alexander's more passive approach.
I'll be singling out OL prospects in the draft that have "mean streaks" as likely candidates to be drafted by the Bengals.

Mean Streak means Ohio State Center Billy Price could be Bengals first pick. Look at all scouting reports on Price and they say plays with a mean streak. Bob Johnson was Bengals first pick ever as a center by Paul Brown. If Price plays 10 years for Bengals and goes to Pro Bowls, it's an excellent pick.  As many as 6 QB's could go in Round One as many NFL Sites are now seeing a run on QB early. This could drop a very top Left Tackle or Guard to us in Round 2 as Bengals improve weak O Line big time early in draft.
