Now, how will the line improve further and become dominant in the near future? There’s the draft of course and the Bengals will have the 32d pick which will be highly unusual. Now that the 2021-2022 Bengals have had wonderful national exposure under playoff conditions a lot of NFL players are seeing the new edition Bengals and here’s my prediction:
There will be LOTS of free agent offensive linemen who will be burning up their agents’ cell phones trying to get to Cincinnati. Quality starters will WANT to play here.
Would go FA too and try to get 3 good starters if possible a LT, G, C like Armstead, Daniels, and somebody else, maybe Jensen
or at least 2 of these 3 and then keep in no particular order
Carman
Spain
Reiff
Jonah
Hill
Smith
fill in other with draft. Jonah and one other player would start out of this group and rest would be depth.
Pipe dream I know but would want something similar if Bengals could work out the cap space.
Of course the coaches know better than me and will get behind whoever they bring in. just hoping they get some NFL proven talent and at least two starters but preferably 3 imo.
Burrow is too important to not protect.
