Our interior would of suddenly went from pretty much the worst to pretty damn decent and growing if we
Draft Ragnarok. He is the most pro ready of any Center and will be ready to go in OTA's right off the bat.
Could be gelling by the time we get to TC.

Sorry man, really excited too. So excited i don't want to expect Ragnow. Just sounds too good to be true.
First i wanted Price, then i studied on Daniels and still wanted Price, then i studied on Ragnow and he is the best Center.
I am expecting a McGlinchey pick to dim my lights. Nothing against McGlinchey but he struggled against elite competition.
Ragnow excelled against elite competition. Handled Bama's big uglies for multiple years.

Now all that needs to be done is for him to be available at 21. Watch some team jump up to get him.
That said, Lap thought any 3 of the Centers would be very good. As long as we grab one, I am happy.

I'm great with Ragnow, although I would prefer Price. But if they draft Orlando Brown, I will jump off the Brent Spence bridge. With a net, of course.
The main thought I'm having lately is that the most important thing in this draft is to emerge with a great center. This would do it.

Drafting a center will get me there.
Everything in this post is my fault.

With Ragnow's momentum leading up to the Draft who knows.
But i agree i would be happy with any of the top 3. Even if i am concerned with Daniels early against 3-4
Defenses and concerned with Price not gelling with the rest of the O-line till the season is here.
Still way better than Bodine.

Orlando Brown should fall a ways after that combine. Would be fine with him in the 3rd, his tape doesn't lie.
He played good in the games and didn't allow a sack last season. Has to stand for something.

After actually hearing Dan Hoard's lead up to Lap's pick makes me think it seems a little fishy...

I don't believe it....I think it's smoke...
I still say Hernandez at 21 then in rd #2 the best OC on the board....whichever of the 3 OC's that is....
I think it'll be Ragnow....as Daniels & Price will already be gone....
but if it is Ragnow at 21 ....fine....
i'm not going to say I know more than our war room....

Except that Oklahoma isn't in the SEC... They play in the Big 8, 12, or whatever they go by these days. You know, the no-defense conference!
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Steve, you're setting yourself up for depression. If Lapham says Center, then it's time to get ready for a 1st round Center.

And why would any Bengal fan be depressed by that?

Only problem now is that we will all be hoping for Ragnow only for him to be taken 2 or 3 picks before us

Anyone buying the Lamar Jackson hype surrounding the Bengals!? NFL Live Mock just selected Jackson to Cincinnati too. I originally was like 10% chance that happens, but now I'm thinking 30% chance. It would definitely make for an interesting training camp.
