Maybe round 2 for Faalele. 31 is way to early for a project that is inconsistent and plays high at RT.

Kaiir Elam or Andrew Booth would be awesome.

I think they'll look at defensive players with the two OL FA signings today; CB or DL. They don't need to draft a project OL who can't be a day 1 starter.

Pats wanted him back, but we outbid them.
Bengals signed OL Ted Karras for three years, $18M, per source. Patriots initially offered three years and $15M then lowered it to three years, $13M.

Ted Karras and Cappa are guards, so we're probably picking a RT in the first round. Nice moves so far. The "front office is cheap" talk is gone.

Bengals in the SB and now outbidding other teams for their own players? Oh me oh my I’m like a kid in a candy store.

Cannot depend on the draft to fill a very important position of need. If they wait until then, the Bengals will be in trouble even with the other signings.
I really want Collins, but, if they at least bring back Reiff I would be ok with that. Right now it's Prince at RT. NO THANK YOU!

There’s some good options out there for RT (Moses, Daryl Williams, Collins). Grabbing one of them would really open up the draft to go BPA (likely defense).

Did Trent Brown get grabbed up yet?
Would like him too if he is still an option.
Billy Turner got cut by the Pack for cap reasons too.
RE: Ted Karras - CloeHokie - 03-14-2022
Looks like we got our guards replaced. Can he play center? I still want to see if we bring someone in at center or move someone
RE: Ted Karras - Yogo - 03-14-2022
Oh dang.... Tennessee bringing back Ben Jones C for 2 years $14 million. Wow. What a deal.

Ted Karras has been cross trained to play center for most of his professional career taking alot of reps there in pre-seasons. He has been thr first IOL off the bench for the Patriots for a few years now and has played Center, Right Guard, Left Guard, and Left Tackle. In Cincinnati I expect him to take over Center duties.

Karras has positional flexibility. He has played mainly C, though.

Karras is not a good center

Karras plays Center and Guard just like Daniels, just more physical.
I bet we cut Hopkins cause Karras is the new Center and we bring in a RT next.

As mentioned earlier, not he also comes from a winning organization.
Let training camp sort it out. Now they have good competition at the guard spots for the backups. If you are Carmen you know you must come to camp ready to impress. Same for other 1 & 2 year guys on the line.

For you youngsters, Alex Karras was an absolute bad ass DT for the Lions. I spent many Thanksgiving Days watching him beat the shit out of Packers guards.
How bad ass was he, you ask?
He punched out a horse in Blazing Saddles. Totally in character.
He was Webster's dad on a sitcom as well.
Your profile pic kind of looks like the sheriff in blazing saddles.
