Or instead of shifting Karras if Carman and Volson don't pan out by season's end, the Bengals could just...get a new guard.
They can get one in FA or the draft.

You also shouldn't plan for any OL to be a quality starter right from the get-go except maybe if he's a 1st round talent.

That's why I've said so many times the Bengals need to add another veteran OL just in case Carman and Volson aren't ready to live up to the task yet.

Williams-vet-Karras-Cappa-Collins would be an above average OL.

Carman or Volson could also be good this year, but with no history proving that yet, do you want to gamble on it?
I'm ok waiting to see how TC is going, but if neither looks great toward the end of preseason, Bengals need to find someone to add with some proven success.
