So I guess on our SB run we had one of the higher % of drafted starters on your list. I listed 16 drafted players that started in the SB and the highest one on your list is 16 with the Seahawks in 2013. Nice.

To be fair, it’s not my list… it’s an article I found. But yes.

real nice offensive line they drafted. Nice indeed

Even if you take away every OL we drafted other than Williams it's a high amount of drafted players that started in the SB.

So I’ve seen a post that Tee put on his IG a clip of Akon singing locked up.

Who does that injury prone cockwomble with the hamstrings made of cheese think he is?

One minute he loves Cincinnati and the next he’s posting that shite and demanding trades.

The ***** idiot needs to realise he’s here because A) We drafted him and you’ll do as your told as your under the tag and most importantly B) Either teams aren’t willing to give up the picks to get you or they too are worried about the money you’d want for someone who gets injured opening the fridge.

**** him I hope the Bengals tag him again next year just to piss of him and his agent.

We forget some NFL players are children in a man's body. It appears he needs to grow up mentally.

Fingers crossed he meant “locked up” like locked up with a long term contract and we aren’t letting him out.

I like the optimism. If so, that would be great news if it also frees up more cap space in 2024.

Their plan is just confusing. Ok. So we are all in on sustained success. To hell with going for it all in this final big money year. Assuming we buy the spin. Why no long term contracts so we don’t have to worry about spending and cap in two years? That’s not very long term. So what a the plan? All in for the next two years? I’m trying to like this FA if I can better understand it.

Why aren't we lining up visits for plan B for both RT and NT. I know that a trade is possible, but if a descent FA is available you don't have to trade a pick.

6.5m gtd. He has to play 90% of snaps to get close to $20m

Or not better than the 2 (forget their names) RT who hit free agency? What if there is a run on OT and we miss out at 18. You good rolling with Carmen at RT? What if we decide there’s a can’t miss prospect at 18 and it’s not OT?


CB can possibly get better. DT is not better. We have Hill and Rankins under contract.

There are 7 offensive tackles in GBN reports top 21 players.At least 1,will still be there at pick 18.

This is a good point. Went back and looked at the drafts at the number OTs taken before pick 18:

2023 - 4
2022 - 3
2021 - 3
2020 - 3

So odds are good we will get one of the top 4 or 5 which are all ranked in the top 20.
