Should we make an offer. Would be nice to keep Whit and Zeitler, add Mangold then draft someone like Toth to groom. Thoughts
Nick Mangold

I would also like to add the fact that he was cut so Mikey won't lose a precious comp pick. This is a perfect win win situation for Cincy. Make it happen damnit.

Might be possible if the coaches want to improve this team. Whitworth - Boling - Mangold - Westerman/Bodine/Hopkins - Fisher Not like this is great, but it might be an improvement over last year. Bodine might actually be decent at Guard, never know.

I would and it fits the Bengals MO of signing cut players to get comp picks. I think the team is still set on grooming Bodine though and getting a replacement center isn't even on their radar.

He's probably an upgrade to Bodine.
However, he has 11 years of NFL wear and tear on his body. He's 33. He only played in 8 games last year due to injuries. I fear he might be another AJ Hawk/Dansby that we bring in that is washed up. 11 years is a lot of wear and tear for a Center. I'd probably go Stefan Wisieniewski as he is younger...but either upgrade us. I do like Mangold's experience as the Center is the QB of the offensive line too.

Mike might not want to hurt Whit or Zeitler feelings by offering something to Mangold before they are locked. This is a great chance to salvage this line and open up the draft, it has the Bengals MO all over it, yet we will just do nothing. We just want to see something, at least show a little effort to improve this team rather than saving a buck. I know Mangold is up there age wise but he's better than what we have now.

What's working against us too is there aren't many good free agent Centers.
I don't really know how many teams could use a Center. I would assume the Browns need one.

If his medical checks out on the ankle they need to bring him in even if it's just 3 or 4 years left in his tank. That would be all the time left in Green, Dalton, and Geno's window anyways. P.s. appreciate the **** out of Geno while you can. Fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy, dinosaurs had little chance to survive as a species.

Please Mike Brown could we sign Mangold, a legit Center? He is from Kettering and I would love to see Dalton get over 2 seconds to throw before pressure comes up the middle.
Do it for Bengals Nation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's no way he has 3-4 years left in the tank. He's been a starter in the NFL for 11 years already and is 33.

Fits our profile as well May be his best chance for playing time as well, for a decent team |
