We'll see what happens with Carman, a lot of the picks hinge on him like Reiff. An opinion I trust gave the Bengal's draft an A with their philosophy based on value rather than need which is probably leaving a bad taste in a lot of mouths of Bengals fans. I also think there are still plans for the offseason. Smith hitting is also crucial for this draft.
I also predict Zac will be on a short leash next season because of all the non-Taylor Bengals guys brought in on personnel, at least I think so. I hope. I also hope ZT is just green with a depleted roster (a disastrous combo) and not as bad as we think. I can't believe I'm saying this, especially because I tend to be more of a pessimist about the Bengals.
Zac is on a short leash right now IMO. We need to get into the Playoffs and win a game this season for me to want to keep
him around. Reiff only allowed 1 sack and had 1 penalty last year, dude is a crazy upgrade over Hart. Gave up less sacks than
Thuney and Orlando Brown. Carman is a road grader that I bet starts at one of the Guard spots as a rookie. He is just made
for the Guard position and is a mauler in the run game and putting him at Guard hides his pass blocking problems with speed
rushers. Even then he was a good pass blocker overall in the SEC at LT going against top DE talent like Chase Young and co.
