You forgot this is the Bengals offense. I joke. Probably. If Bowers somehow magically falls to the Bengals at 18, I think you have to take him regardless of what you did in FA with DT and RT. ____________________________________________________________

Can anyone envision Tobin trading up in
The 2nd RD and drafting Sweat from Texas?

Definitely need to address DT in free agency with Hill being the only serviceable DT on the roster. Assuming they sign a quality DT and maybe a mid level vet RT I could possible see them going WR at 18 if there’s a big tackle run. A guy like Brain Thomas Jr. could fill the Boyd role this year help you win short term and long term soften the Higgins loss next year. Not saying go WR just know how the OT run goes and the DT class isn’t deep Thomas might be BPA at 18. This is what I’m thinking

The best thing in regards to investment in the trenches on the offensive side of the ball would be first to get rid of Pollack. He couldn’t develop a picture

Lol, sure don't like that first thought, cause yeah, that has happened in our Offense ugh Yeah, I highly doubt he falls to 18, but if he does we should pick Bowers.

When proven vets come to your team and they play worse than they did previously it is a clear sign of bad coaching.

In my opinion Tanner Hudson looked great and should develop with enough playtime. We should use the pick on our OL or DT. TE is not our problem with a WR core of Chase, Higgins, Irwin, Yoshi (expecting that we lose Boyd). Of course if Higgins is traded before the Draft then WR becomes a new need.
The Chargers won't pass on Bowers at 10, forget about it.

Hudson is decent but he's 29 so he's not gonna be much better than he is now IMO.

However, this is the final year on Karras' contract. They should most definitely be looking at Center prospects, as well as someone who could step in immediately at RT. Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations -Frank Booth 1/9/23

They aren't going to use them all on tight ends. They may have spoken to others at the Senior Bowl or will be attending their pro days where they can talk Winning makes believers of us all

I don’t want to go in to next season with the hopes tuner gets better. Our secondary was awful last year. I’m all for addressing corner either in FA or the draft, but I would say the lines need the attention first.

I've been watching tape pretty hard the past few days and I gotta say, there's some horrific OL play out there.

It appears that most of the top TE's go outside the 1st Round. Not saying Bowers couldn't be different. Georgia has a pretty loaded team too. That helps some players look good.
