Do you feel we "settled" for Price?

If Ragnow and Price were both still available when we picked at 21, and we took  Price, would you still have the same reservations?

In other words, how do we know they didnt favor Price all along anyway? Maybe they indeed got who they really wanted.

Absolutely not.  Without reading the other comments, I see Ragnow as a better pass blocker and Price as a better run blocker.  That is why I wanted Ragnow over Price for our team.  However, people should look at the analysis of Price from the scouting sources that have been around for a while.  They had him as one of the highest rated centers in the past 12 years, with the other three turning in to Pro Bowlers.  

What I like best about Price is his serious case of the red ass.  How many times have we seen a team come out flat and been like:  "SOMEONE EAT SOME ASSES!!!"  Zimmer would and his guys would respond.  I want Billy Price to knock the ever loving shit out of some steelers and then sit on their face and give them the Rikishi.  

Price will be a leader from day 1.  Guys like that succeed.  I am glad he's a Bengal.
