If we draft a RT and Carman beats him out it becomes a wasted pick in a "all in" year. The Bengals have used a lot of resources trying to fix OL which I applaud, and Collins is still here as well.
With S's and TE's thinned so much and RB and CB needed as well, just not sure they go OL. Yet that's the coaches call and if they do I will not complain because I want Joe protected. Yet Carman looked good at OT and believe Washington helps protect Joe too. .
Darnell Washington sure would help out Carman on the right side big time, nice call Go Cards.
Also sliding Washington over to the left side sure would be intimidating with Orlando Brown and the monster blocking TE of DW.

I think we got Hill and Scott as the starters with Thomas and Anderson as the backups. That may not be great, but it should be solid.
TE, on the other hand, is atrocious. The only dude of any possible chance is Asiasi, but he needs to show he can block if he wants to see the field.
When dealing with the likes of these juggernaut passing offenses like the Chiefs, Bills, Chargers, Eagles, and Cowboys, the Bengals will need a healthy stable of CBs. If Awuzie or CTB goes down, it's Jalen Davis or Allan George. Not sure how comfortable I'd be with that. An early draft pick at CB or re-signing Apple would make me feel better about the CBs.
Yeah, Dax and Tycen just need to grow, I love their upside. Scott is really smart which is what we needed with losing our guys.
I think there will be some chemistry issues early with Dax and Nick, but it will sort itself out with more snaps. Just as long as they
don't cost us games early we should be fine at Safety. Truly believe Daxton Hill could be the next great Safety in the NFL. Better than
both Bates and Bell, but it will take time. Scott was great insurance and from everything I have heard is a great teammate.
Scott likes to hit too and wrap up when he tackles. Ramsey just doing what he wanted hurt the grades of the other Secondary players
on the Rams, especially in coverage. It was a shock losing Bell at the time, but I think we could of done much worse than Nick Scott.
Bringing the thread back on track. Want to see Jackson Carman become a stud at RT....
LT - Orlando Brown
LG - Cordell Volson
C - Ted Karras
RG - Alex Cappa
RT - Jackson Carman (studified)
With Darnell Washington helping out sure sounds awesome to me lol
