The Bengals currently have no good young guards on the roster, no future RT and Hopkins is coming off an ACL. Seems like the plan to address the line long term is hope Sewell is there at 5 and if not hope Tobin can hit on multiple offensive lineman in later rounds while still addressing other needs with 8 picks. Considering Tobins recent track record with offensive lineman I’m not confident he can draft one let alone two quality lineman. Tobins a big reason why were in this mess by drafting Ogbuehi, Fisher, Price, Jordan, trading for Cordy Glenn , signing John Miller, drafting Ross 9th overall, multiple years of awful linebacker drafts, signing/ resigning Preston Brown, reaching for Sample round 2 and hiring this current coaching staff that’s won 6 games in two years.
Not as down on Tobin as you are. Sure, the Og pick was terrible but injury, coaching and mental state were problems with the other
players. Every team misses on Draft picks, heck last year we hit on the first 3 rounds big time. I live in the now, if we Draft as well
this year as last year, Burrow will be getting a shot at the Playoffs in his second year.
XSF and Spain with an entire Offseason under Pollack could really surprise people and we aren't done yet in FA and the Draft hasn't
even begun and there are some fine Guards/Centers in the 2nd and 3rd rounds like Meinerz, Creed Humphrey, Jackson Carman etc.
