There is no competition at LT, unless they draft a 1st Rd LT.

Why in the world would they even consider moving Volson after he spent all season to learn guard?  He will be like a rookie all over again at RT, you all are killing this guy.

What do you think we would all say if the Bengals traded for an injury prone tackle with short arms that lead the league in sacks given up, oh and he costs 12.3M....? Lets agree that trading Jonah may be difficult.  We could trade Tee and make them take Jonah...?

I think you boys might want to slow your horses on some of these suggestions.  Consider how long it took for the oline to gel this past season.  Now you guys want to disrupt at least 2 spots maybe 3?

Bengals are pretty conservative and strive for continuity, I think they will keep the oline in tack as much as possible and hope they only have to deal with one new guy at RT.

Again, he played RT more than any other position i n his five years at NDSU, and played very little guard.  You could argue that the Bengals were "killing this guy" (AND CARMAN) by having them learn all new positions in the NFL, no less.

It wouldn't hurt him to try him at RT.  He could end up being an even bigger steal.  Or, he could move back to guard.  But I have seen enough of Adeniji and Smith is not reliable.  

What is your solution for RT next year?  Hope?  Overpay a FA with cap space they will need for other players?
