From what I am hearing we have traded the 12th selection for him but have acquired one of the Bills first round selections as well. Awesome freaking move for the franchise!!!!

WHO-DEY!!!!

Well.....I mean, the guy that started it is usually critical about the Bengals offseason moves, so.....

(where the hell you been?  been a while, good to see ya back)

It is, and I like the effort as well, never saw it coming.

Yep, that's where I'm at.  I begged for help at LT, the only really good one that was a FA was Solder.....so they traded for one.  Finally, a move that made total sense and wasn't a dumpster dive.  I wouldn't have been any more surprised if I had woken up with my head sewn to the carpet.

Yep, this pointed to a little more urgency.....something I felt they were lacking.

Go ahead and draft Isaiah Wynn to play center and have 2/3 UGA line.

Wouldn't hurt my feelings.

We should still draft a tackle with strong potential for the future.

I now like the best DT or LB with our first choice.

Finally......moving on from Piano Man, and now this, our weakness may go on to become a strength this season.  I'd say the RBs are even happier.

Everyone wanted a big move in free agency, there were even Cordy Glenn threads. Now, we got him, practically stole him, and people are complaining because he had a foot injury. Well so did Andre Smith. They can carpool to the podiatrist together, ok? Bottom line, the left side of our offensive line just went from very bad to very good.... for a handful of draft spots. Superb move....

Gotta agree, solid move.  It's worth the risk, IMO.

For me, it does signal one thing loud and clear that they very, very rarely do:  admit they whiffed on a player.  They aren't going to roll Ced out there and hope he is better in year four with a new OC, but they are addressing that key spot with a young player that should be at the top of his game and isn't the crap shoot of being a rookie from the draft.

I really wanted to see a bunch of QBs go early and see a really elite talent slip to #12, but at #21, the Bengals are still likely to see a Top 15 talent because that run on QBs is going to happen and it is going to happen early.  

Easier to do when his biggest supporter is finally shitcanned.
