I think Fisher and Ced are equally bad. I think the Bengals would replace Fisher before Ced because of contract status.

Like you said the draft isn't a sure fix. 1st Round picks have a 40% hit rate. We could draft a Tackle in Round 1, Guard in Round 2, and Center in Round 3 and fans would be talking Super Bowl. The odds of all 3 of those guys being good starters Day 1 are really low.

Out of any draft where you have 7 picks...you're lucky if 2 guys end up quality starters. That's what's tough about not signing free agents.

I along with several others were screaming for them to sign a Guard like Ronald Leary. Leary currently grades out at 83.3 by PFF as the #7 ranked Guard.

So you would replace Fisher and Hopkins in their first year of consistent snaps? Even though it's common knowledge most lineman take their step their second year of playing time.

You like to mention DeCastro alot. What you don't mention is thay DeCastro missed his first year due to injury and was Below average his second. He took a huge step in his 3rd year (second playing) and earned and extention.


As for Leary he went to thr Broncos on thr first day of free agency. You act like all they have to do is extend an offer and they automaticly sign. You don't mention that there are ALOT of teams with offensive line issues. He had a chance to go ALOT of places and he chose Denver.
