You never know about resigning him. They gave Boling quite a bit of money. I don't think the excuse "they won't sign him to a second contract" is good enough reason to not draft a guy.
In reality, you have him locked up for 6 years. 4 year deal, 5th year option, 6th year franchise tag.
The Bengals won't franchise tag or extend a guard who is in position for top dollar.
Not as long as Mike Brown is making the final say.
I think it's a perfect reason to not invest a first round pick in a player if you know he's limited to 5 years with the team if he's good.
Why not take a DT or DE? We will sign those.
He'd have to be so clear and above what's the best available for me to ever see the logic in this team drafting a guard that high ever again
