Collins and Williams both had terrible seasons, both for injury reasons.  When your plan to protect your franchise QB has eroded just that simply, it's time to cut and run on both of those guys.

Carman still has a LOT of proving to do, before he can be considered reliable for a full season.  Sorry, a couple of late season appearances just doesn't do it for me.

You say "before Brown fell in our laps", but how do you not know that the FO was looking to secure the position from the get-go?  It appears to me that they made their move, struck fast, struck hard..

I also disagree about the #4 OT spot being the only one up for grabs.  I see the RT/Swing Tackle being between Carman and Ford.  I really feel like Williams is not going to be on the opening day roster.  Sorry if that hurts your feelings or disrupts your vision of how the team will play out, but that's my seasoned opinion.  I see the Bengals drafting a rookie to be the RT of the future.  He may not be a day 1 starter, he might be developmental all season if Carman or Ford step up, we will have to see.

My thoughts exactly.

I don't think there's much of a chance Collins is able health wise to go this season. If he is it will be late in the season and I doubt he's effective.

Williams ?? I just don't have a warm fuzzy feeling about his ability to be a regular starter anymore.

It wouldn't shock me at all if one or both aren't on the team come September. In short we need something more than those 3 to rely on, IMHO.
