I know we were all hoping he would be our new kicker but its not happening...instead Cedric's new role is as backup LEFT tackle. This according to our favorite Bengal's reporter Jim O.

Not surprised. Always thought that's why he was drafted anyway...to be Whit's replacement. Unfortunately, I also thought he could step into RT and play well while Whit was still on the team...but that was clearly wrong.

Hopefully this isnt like what we did with Andre. Just let him leave because Ogbuehi proved he was ready to start at RT.
Now they probably think he proved he is ready to start at LT so Whit can move on.

This is where I thought he should've been the whole time. Learning his future role. Switching Right to Left is not as easy as it sounds.

Stupid question, but what did our former LT do to deserve this?

Sign a long-term deal with a franchise that saw the only notable franchise QBs during the Mike Brown era demand trades and leave in abject disgust?

Only two positions Ogbuehi is good enough for...
and
- - - - - - - - -
Nati's suggestion terrified me. I agree that I hope this doesn't mean they don't feel a need to keep Whit from leaving in FA. 2017 with Ogbuehi at LT, Fisher at RT, and Bodine at C continuing to snap the ball on the ground, could seriously mean the end of Dalton's career.

I saw some quotes earlier that they plan to get him some game action at left tackle this season. Is this them just not wanting to admit that they made a mistake? With the way guys run right past him, Dalton is in for trouble.

Another way of looking at it that he's a bench warmer.

This. I'd be furious if I was Dalton.

Surely the coaches could see Ogeebogee's ineptness early on (yes, he was injured when drafted) and would have attempted to hold onto Andre a bit longer.

That would be third straight, by my count. I don't really see anyone between Boomer and Carson being "franchise" but that's just me.
