Bengals said after money they spent first days of F/A that this meant they could not resign Bodine, Hill and probably Pacman. They said they will have to replace Bodine but not in F/a or they would have just kept Bodine. Bengals say very possible first round will be used to get a center. Bengals met with center Price of Ohio State last week. Now in the combine he had a bench press injury, but news is he is fine and he will be as ready as anybody in drat to go into practices and preseason.
There are rumors it won't be center in one. You can bet your astro turf it will be a center in either one or two. They have to. They let their center go and that makes 4 of the 5 linemen in 2015 start of 8-0 gone. People saying Bengals have players on team to put at center are crazy. If you didn't like Bodine, do you really want his horse meat back up ? NO. They had better draft the best center in the draft, and I'm all for round one. Basic Football 101 is protect superstar. protect QB. The Bengals are worse at center. You fans may not have liked Bodine, but now we have no center. Dalton will get killed, Mixon will get killed, if we don't draft a center early. It will be Klingler and KiJana Carter getting killed all over again, only Dalton and Mixon.
This is not a rumor. With Bodine gone, Bengals have no center. No, Bodine's back-ups, heck no. Bengals have no center. That is no rumor, that is a fact. Forget Best Available Athlete stuff. Bengals need a center and for Bengals, center is the best available athlete on the board because they have no center. Can't play season without a center. Good to hear Bengals say probably round one. Look, if they draft Price and he plays to 2030 at center and is best center since Bob Johnson on this team, we all look back happy that they took a center when they needed a center.
