RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - Au165 - 04-27-2018
Side note, Bucky Brooks gave the pick an A- said he was the best Center in his mind and though had he not got injured at the combine he could have gone higher.

I don't understand the desire for a guard, especially in Rd 1, when they have Boling, Westerman, Redmond, and Hopkins. Westerman and Redmond will battle it out for the RG spot and they are both huge upgrades over what we saw out of Hopkins. What we needed, and got, was a center that can run block and lead the line in terms of call and attitude and that is what we got.
And Ragnow was injured at the combine as well, so there's that...

Great pick. I can't believe the whining that went on over this pick. First off, it is debatable who the better center was, Price or Ragnow, so what does that mean, it means they are right there together. Price partially tore a pec. It's healed. Ragnow hurt his ankle, big deal. Price's doctor says he's already fine. And, don't forget, as was pointed out weeks ago by another poster, he's "irritable". I'm very happy with this pick, welcome to the Bengals Billy the Kid.....

So he fractured his pec?

Physicality is what rules in the NFL. Ragnow and Price are both physical beasts, Daniels is the "master technician", and he's the one still sitting on the board..
And it doesn't reflect their play at all, but when they showed Daniels at home, it looked like he was wearing a velvet robe or something, a la Hugh Hefner??? Made me laugh.

I was excited enough to jump outta my chair. And Price is a game changer. No more defenders beating the ball to Andy and huge holes up the middle for Mixon and Gio. Just because what a player does doesn't show up on a stat sheet doesn't mean they can't make a splash.

The mean streak comments I’m hearing about him sound promising. If you had to describe our line last year in one word I think passive about sums it up.
RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - BengalFanInNJ - 04-27-2018
Look, the difference between Price and Ragnow is miniscule. Let's say one was a 10 and the other a 9.5. Either way, we got a player we needed at a position that has been weak for almost a decade. If I had a gun to my head, I would have preferred Ragnow but he wasn't available anymore. They did the right thing and got the "next best" player whom many felt was the best in the draft at his position.
Center is not a sexy pick but for once, this team needed to get away from the glamor picks and get a football player.

If he stunk he wouldn’t be average. He’d be bad. This post is bad and you should feel bad.

Great pick. Team is doing all the right things this year so far. Not what we are used to.
RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - Big Boss - 04-27-2018
The only knock I've seen against Price (on this board at least) is his arm length. Should that not be a concern?
RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - WeezyBengal - 04-27-2018
How can people sit here and complain about a guy and a pick that they probably have no idea about? People wanted Ragnow over Price? How many of those people have actually seen Ragnow play one play of a football game? How many of those people have actually paid any kind of attention to Price when he was at OSU?
People just love to complain. We got a good player in Price. He will be fine.
Also, it IS possible that both Ragnow and Price could BOTH be good. I know, it seems impossible, but maybe...just maybe, they both work out and are both good players.

Didn't seem to bother him at Ohio State. He's good in space and has great movement. I think that makes up for it.

He has trouble throwing the 20 yard out, thats for sure. I hope his arm strength improves because the accuracy is definitely there.
RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - Bengalbug - 04-27-2018
I would have liked ragnow, but at what cost?
It probably would have cost us a 3rd to move up just a few spots.
Let’s see who they land in the third today and then we can look and see
Is price and ____ or ______ better than ragnow?
Of course we won’t know today, but then we can have a better conversation

Price by himself is better than Ragnow.

Again, that is your opinion and that’s fine. And I hope you are right. Healthy I think you are right!! I just wanted someone healthy from day 1
But we won’t know until they touch the field.
RE: Woo Hoo!! Billy Price! - The Real Deal - 04-27-2018
Instant upgrade. Just what the doctor ordered. Now go get yourself a tace in Crosby, brown or Jones and we will be in business. Pepper in a guard in hernandez, gossett or Smith and the Oline overhaul is complete.
