Younger is great until we see the quality of the youth the Bengals have come up with.

A 35 year old LT out worked, out muscled, out finessed, out agilitied a much younger player in Og. So we'll go with the young guys cause he's younger. That only makes sense in Mikey's bizzaro world.

Aging Nelson was let go for a younger Williams and Nelson put on a clinic out in Oakland.

Aging Andre Smith departs and we hand over RT to Og who single handedly made the O-line regress to a 90s look.

Now we expect Og to replace Whit, who was better at his position than Smith was at his. I don't see it.

We don't even offer Zeitler a contract when the team could have had him for $9M a year last year and now we're inserting Westerman who hasn't even taken a single snap in the NFL.

The D-line replacements have been so bad in Hunt, Still, Thompson and Hardison that we brought back Michael Johnson after he flopped down here in Tampa. At the least we and the front office has knows that the backup D-line has been dismal.

I still, after all these years, don't see that Mikey actually wants to win.

The drafts have just sucked for several years now. What looks like promising selections either never get on the field, are projects that just don't progress or are injured wiping out all or most of their rookie years. Dennard, Billings, Jackson, Kirkpatrick, Og and even McCarron all lost most of or all their rookie seasons. I also believe I missed a few in that list.

I'm all for youth getting in the game, but Mikey Brown has made an art out of f'ing it up.
