Aside from him I looked back. Billy Pryce, was a bust obviously. And the year before we took back to back busts in Fisher and Obejie. Whatever his name is. Outside of this guys we haven't really taken any. Definitely not in the first 4 or 5 rounds. Actually it was kind of depressing seeing exactly how many first round picks we have whiffed on.
I like Jonah Williams. He has been a solid player when healthy. Health didn't start off great but that's changed. I don't have an issue with bringing in fa as well. In fact we absolutely should. And draft 2 more in the first 4 rounds. FA is great for filling some of your holes. The draft is good for others. I think we need RT/G/C to replace. Maybe RG also but I'll give Carmen another year. Even if we bring in a fa he is just likely going to be old/older. That's fine but we need guys to develop and become potential players in the team for a long time. So bring in some guys in fa and draft some guys to groom and or take over right away if they are up to it.
Honestly. After watching the Tennessee game if anyone is really against drafting 2 olineman in the first 4 rounds I don't know what to say to you. I'm too old to waste my time.
Soooooo u said the bengals draft really good/great offensive lineman. And that clearly is not the case. It’s true that we don’t draft a lot of them which is sad in itself but when we do we swing and miss worse than Jordan. Ohh hey Michael Jordan that’s right another BUST!! Lol and Of course zietler counts but he’s bounced around and was solid at best not great by any stretch of the imagination. Jonah Williams is still a massive question mark at Left tackle and that before u start to talk about the injuries. Carman so far can’t beat out isiah prince nor adeniji who are other draft busts lmao billy price garbage. Fisher garbage ogbuehi garbage Anthony Collins garbage honestly there isn’t 1 outside of Whitworth in the last 20 years I’d bang the table for. The bengals do not do a good job drafting offensive lineman. It’s that simple no matter which way u desperately try and explain it.
Now what we can agree on is bringin in FA’s but to think we can go into the draft hoping that the bengals finally fricken hit on a offensive lineman who can come in right now and ball out and protect burrow is disrespectful to burrow and his knee. The team fails and fails time and time again. I’m only comfortable drafting guys on the offensive line if there are already studs in front of them via FA. That’s just the history of this team and how poorly they draft offensive lineman.
