We currently don't have ANY viable OG reserves. Other than Karras, who is the starting C. LC played G forca year in Dallas. If we can fit him under the cap, I'd much rather cut Smith and/or Adeniji. Collins isxa,better player than either. 

Jonah to RT has to be, right?

Yeah as soon as I saw the avg/yr that was what came to mind.  Tobin and Co. waited it out and made possibly the biggest FA signing we have ever made.  Too many thoughts 

What's his Jersey number going to be so we can buy them?
Does the front loaded deal make a way for Tee?
Is it all dead money if they trade Jonah or can a team take money back?
Does Jonah start at RT and if Carman doesn't beat him is he a 6th man?
How do you make a link to Kool & the Gang's celebration into a post?
How am I going to be up at 5am?

I'm so proud of the FO and ashamed I complained about missing out on C grade safeties, they'll get a decent one.

KC fans are saying OBJ was a huge weakness on their line in pass blocking. Haven't really looked into it but definitely curious.

Hopefully it's just salty tears and not much truth to it.

Regardless it's an upgrade from what we had.

oh this will be interesting. Great for the signing, curious on where it sends our line.

LC is way better than those guys and more versatile.  Jonah at RT?, maybe, I just started a thread campaigning for him at LG for a super solid left side of the line.

You're still in time out. Not allowed to speak yet.

I don’t know what’s happening! Do I put on my mask during these unprecedented times?

Let them cry...

Now with this signing , the Bengals can now target
TE, or CB, DT in RD 1.

There is a reason their FO wanted to sign him long term.

Welp, a few folks look silly right about now, but of course they did when they were shouting at the falling sky.

Great move.

Same for bell, a few years back

And then hurst just last year.

Alexander Mattison 24 yrs old value is 2.2 million bring him in.

This is a little disappointing^, I was expecting one your nuclear zingers on this... too much of a softball situation I guess.

They are new fans…. Or they just simply are not on board with this new bengals team.

Sold naming rights, built practice bubble, etc.

I would bet burrow has a day in what’s happening right now.

Would likely be an upgrade. Mattison played really well behind cook.

I think people forget perine was a nothing, up until this year. He might have been the worst player in the SB last year.

I'd be totally fine with Julian Love and Lou knows him.

Buzz around the twitterverse that we’ve got another big signee to be announced early tomorrow.

[BuildTheWall]

Wow, great deal, and we get him for $4M less (per year) than the Chiefs paid his replacement.
Best part is, go pure BPA in the draft and don't panic into reaching. Personally, I never thought Jonah was that bad, and I think he'll do better as a strongside tackle. I imagine he moves to RT. If Cordell Volson is the weakest link on the OL, that is a very good thing.
