ODOT is already super slow at fixing roads, no need to make it take even longer by adding someone who doesn't know how to lift their arms.

..so let me get this straight..getting nasty and mean is going to make ced stronger so that he does not get pushed around by every defensive lineman in the league?

He stated in the article that he was learning to use his hands more, like a martial artist.
Then when he got into the games apparently they didn't want to use the technique?

I noticed that Pollack uses the same technique in the conversations that I read.
IF Ced can pick up on the style that Pollack is bringing in he could be VERY good. His attributes coming out of College were good enough for his draft choice. NO ONE dogged them about picking Ced where he was drafted. As a matter of fact it was called an excellent puck up.
His measurable physical attributes were outstanding. 
Let's hope that Pollack can get out of him what the Bengals saw when they drafted him.

Bottom line, if our starting RT is currently on the roster, I think we're in trouble.

IMO, Ogbuehi is the worst tackle I've ever seen, while Fisher is just standard issue bad. We might be able to get by with Fisher without wanting to claw our eyes out by week 3.

I just have more hope for the guy, based on his slightly better play and less time starting. That said, I want an upgrade. That's why I said I'd be looking at veteran cuts.
